Dinosaurs of Antarctica
WHAT: Dinosaurs have never been cooler.
Travel back in time as the land of snow and ice transforms into a lush woodland teeming with prehistoric beasts. Meet Cincinnati Museum Center’s paleontologists to learn how intrepid scientists are braving incredible conditions to recover these incredible fossils from the frozen landscape.
Cincinnati Museum Center’s newest featured exhibition introduces you to dinosaurs you’ve never seen before with real fossils and lifelike sculptures. Meet the fierce 25-foot-long predator Cryolophosaurus, the rhino-sized long-necked herbivore Glacialisaurus and the sleek predator of the seas Taniwhasaurus. Get hands on as you experiment with the tools paleontologists are using to uncover these discoveries from the snow and ice. And strap yourself in to Birdly as you soar above a prehistoric landscape and among the treetops and necks of the Jurassic.
Dinosaurs of Antarctica opens to the public October 14, along with a companion OMNIMAX® film of the same name where the dinosaurs thunder to life across the five-story dome screen. The exhibition is included with museum admission and free for museum Members. The OMNIMAX® film requires an additional ticket.
