Join us for some (trilo)bite-sized fun as we explore the earliest animals on Earth that evolved millions of years before the dinosaurs.
Meet Lara Uttinger, a scientist researching this ancient world, from the Department of Earth Sciences, University of Cambridge. Chat with Lara about long-extinct animals unlike anything you might find today, and find fossil evidence of these animals in the Museum.
Investigate real fossils and use these to make your own trilobite replica fossil to take home.

Ever fancied sketching among telescopes, globes, and ancient scientific instruments? Step into Cambridge University's home for the history of science for a relaxed, creative evening.
Drop into our fun, hands-on activities and get trained up for a summer of fossil and rock hunting. Rummage in everyday gravel and be amazed by your fossil finds. Learn how to identify the three main rock types using our beautiful specimens. Go the extra mile and use our scientists’ lab techniques to reveal rocks that glow under UV light, and minerals that form a rainbow of colours under powerful microscopes.
