Denver Museum of Nature and Science is famous for its beautiful dioramas of wildlife and natural habitats. You've seen these scenes before, but have you really SEEN them? In this series for folks age 50+, join a museum scientist for a guided gaze at the museum's beloved dioramas. Seated together, we’ll look with fresh eyes to explore hidden details, ask questions, learn the real story behind what we see, and discover the art and science of the wildlife dioramas.
In this series, we will explore three separate dioramas. Come to one session -- or come to all three! Connect with others as you apply what you've learned to each new diorama we examine.
Sessions will take place on:
- September 13: Giant Birds with ornithologist Garth Spellman, Click here to register

For each session, you will receive a ticket to the museum. Registration is required for each individual session that you'd like to attend. Space is limited. Please let us know if you cannot make a session so that we can give your spot to someone else.
Seating will open at 2:00. The program will start at 2:30 and end at 3:30. Parking is available in the museum parking lot.
