Join us at the Polar Museum for the chance to dive deeper into the art of map making and navigation! Get a closer look at the stunning paintings of the Arctic and Antarctic on our ceiling domes and fill in your own versions to take away. While you're here, you'll have the chance to speak to experts about some of the equipment explorers would use to navigate safely in the polar regions and use a new trail to find the objects in the museum. We'll even have a few objects from our handling collection out so you can get a closer look for yourselves!
