Being able to walk through the museum and experience the fossils and other exhibits allows for hands-on learning in a fun and unique environment for visitors of all ages.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEach year we have two free days at the museum. This serves the purpose of making the museum accessible to everyone in the community,\u201d Barrick said. \u201cWe match these free days to days when we generally have special events planned at the museum. National Fossil Day is one of those days every year and Darwin Day in February is the other.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the rest of the year, some new exhibits will be making their way to Sternberg as well. The constant rotation of exhibits is a consistent draw for visitors to the museum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThere is a lot happening with exhibits at the museum this fall. The robotic Age of the Dinosaurs has been extended to the end of the year. On November 6, we will open \u2018Exploring Extinction: the Dodo\u2019 which looks into the life and death of this iconic creature as a case of human-driven extinction,\u201d Barrick said. \u201cWe presently have the new exhibit \u2018Animal Groups\u2019, a sequel to the Art and the Animal exhibition featuring nine artists focused on nine groups.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2018Beautiful paintings and The artists featured in the exhibition will be Brian Jarvi, Tucker Bailey, Dan Ostermiller, Ezra Tucker, Jan McAllaster Stommes, Joy Beckner,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brandon Finamore, Gamini Ratnavira, and Paul Rhymer. The exhibit will feature \u201cbeautiful paintings and sculptures [that] capture the characteristics of incredible animals from around the world.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEach artist captured a small piece of nature, ranging from pets and farm animals to the wilds of North America, Africa, and the Indian Ocean land and sea,\u201d Barrick said.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another unique feature of Sternberg is its YouTube channel that helps to educate people about different aspects of science and fossil discovery.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Sternberg Museum also has its own YouTube channel. We presently<\/p>\n\n\n\n
feature a weekly video series, A New Way to Museum. You can explore the<\/p>\n\n\n\n
museum and the world of topics with the staff of the museum in this fun series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A new episode drops every Thursday,\u201d Barrick said.
