Special Programs and Hours for
Martin Luther King Day

January 21, 2008
Special Holiday Hours 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.


The Children’s Museum will be open 9:00 a.m.  - 5:00 p.m. on Martin Luther King Day with extra animal demos, Mr. Science shows, and full dome planetarium experiences in the new Travelers Science Dome.   While our Main Exhibit hall will be closed from January 2 – February 15, 2008 to make way for our new Dino Dig Space, Martin Luther King Day will be a fun-filled day of unique science programming.

Be wowed by Mr. Science as he performs amazing experiments and science weirdness in two special demonstrations.   Come face to face with our many animals.   In the new Travelers Science Dome you can ride a snowflake in Molecularium, experience a rocket launch in Astronaut, and search for weather in the Zula Patrol – Under the Weather.
