Description
This chilly summer adventure seeks to educate visitors of all ages about the importance of snow and the vital role it plays in the global climate system. Experience an immersive snowstorm with giant interactive snow crystals, make snowflakes grow from specks to complex six-sided crystals, and listen to oral histories about snow from Iñupiaq elders and culture bearers.
Families can also explore Walking in Antarctica, an exhibition that journeys through an extraordinary environment of remote places that few people get to witness in person. Through photography, sculpture, and audio narrative, "walk" over frozen lakes, around towering glaciers and more.
The museum is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and from 1 to 5 p.m. on Sunday.
