Hungry for knowledge about prehistory?
The Summer Lecture Series of the George S. Eccles Dinosaur Park & Museum provides just the feast you’re looking for!
Starting on the first Saturday of the summer, we will explore the strange organisms of prehistory, the history of their scientific study, and the legends they inspire.
