Calendar Listings Update In Progress

Natural History Museum

Through Nov. 1: The museum’s annual “Spider Pavilion” is an outdoor exhibit, where visitors can watch the work of hundreds of web-weaving spiders.

Ongoing: A life-sized T. rex and Triceratops roam the museum Wednesday-Sunday. They’re actually puppets — and the Dinosaur Encounters program they star in aims to teach visitors about dinosaur habits and physicality.

Ongoing: “Thomas the T. rex Lab” is a working paleontological lab, wherein museum preparators will work on a T. rex skeleton in full view of the public.

Ongoing: Three diorama halls show African and North American mammals in their natural environments; more than 2,000 gem and mineral specimens are on view in the Gem and Mineral Hall; and the Ancient Latin America Hall covers prehistoric societies including the Maya, Aztec and Inca. And that’s just the first floor.
