Join us for a night safari adventure, at our special after-hours opening for families. We'll turn our lights down very low, so bring a torch and search the museum for dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals, some of whom roamed Cambridgeshire thousands of years ago.
Drop in to our hands-on activity stations: investigate fossils close up and explore beautiful minerals that glow in the dark under UV light.
