2022-04-07 | Natural History Museum
Hearts For Sight is visiting the Natural History Museum where we would have an opportunity to experience what the museum has to offer up close and be given an opportunity to touch and feel things that we do not normally experience when visiting a museum.
The Natural History Museum (NHM) occupies a special place in Los Angeles: It’s one of L.A.’s oldest cultural institutions, and today, it’s the anchor of an emerging cultural, educational, and entertainment hub in Exposition Park. They show off extraordinary specimens in exhibitions such as Age of Mammals, the Dinosaur Hall, the Gem and Mineral Hall, and our beloved dioramas. But in addition to sharing the history of the planet, they also explore the transformation around us right now: Becoming Los Angeles, the outdoor Nature Gardens, and the Nature Lab look at the relationship between environment and people, past and present, in L.A. In all of these experiences at the museum, whether they are inside or outside, They are interested in the intersection of nature and culture—in L.A. and beyond.
Advance RSVP will be required. Please watch out for the additional details we’ll share.
Note: In accordance with the L.A. City Municipal Code Ordinance, all eligible patrons (currently 12+) are required to show proof of full vaccination, or a negative COVID-19 test performed within 72 hours.
