Exhibit at the Main Library Saturday, Sept. 20 – Sunday, Jan. 4

Dinosaur Explorer journeys through the wildest, wackiest, and most wonderous dinosaurs and examines human physiology through the lens of these magnificent creatures. Although they lived millions of years before us, dinosaurs adapted to not only survive, but to thrive on planet earth. Whether it be feeding or family dynamics, intelligence or interpersonal relationships, Dinosaur Explorer asks: where do we see similarities in our world today? Join us as we explore, compare, and create a whole-new understanding of the most fascinating living organisms in known history.
