Montreal Museums Day @ the Redpath
For the last 20 years the Redpath Museum has thrown its doors wide open on the last Sunday in May so thousands of Montrealers can explore and appreciate the wonder and excitement of natural history and ethnology. Along with viewing the聽exhibits visitors can also participate in a variety of free public activities suchas聽making a fossil replica with plaster, or dissecting an owl pellet to聽identify the bones found in it. Special presentations allow visitors to learn about the museum's star attractions, the聽Albertosaurus, Dromeosaurus, and the newest dino in the group, Sara, the teenage ceratopsian.聽Weather permitting聽visitors can gaze at the sun in security with a solar telescope, guided by the members of the Royal Astronomical Society.
Free, everyone welcome. No reservation necessary.
