ECHOES OF EXTINCTION

May 25 to September 2

9:30am to 4:00pm*

Presented in conjunction with Lost World of Dinosaurs exhibit, Echoes of Extinction is a fossil showcase of rare pre-historic fossils, fossil skeletons, fossil flora, replicas, and reconstructions. The exhibit includes one of only two mounted Nanotyrannus skeletons in the world, a 14 feet long mounted Tricaeratops skeleton, and the only mounted fossil leg of the Dakotaraptor in the world, standing at over 5 feet tall.

A variety of interactive features will engage the public including replica fossils, an original 3-foot dinosaur bone that can be touched, photo-op panels and 3-D print replicas of 66 million year old pollen. Kids will especially enjoy digging through an excavation pit for fossil replicas and an augmented reality sandbox.

The exhibit will include on-site appearances by paleontologists and historians with whom visitors can engage with and learn from the professionals:

PLEASE NOTE: The Gallery will be closed Saturday, June 22, July 27, and August 24 for West Palm Beach Judging Center orchid judging.
