Lovely museum. Much smaller and less "entertaining" than bigger operations, but with excellent depth in biology, wildlife, and astronomy. Reasonably priced planetarium shows. Lots of skulls, shells, feet, and animals you can touch! Great volunteers who enrich the whole experience. Plus, the membership is reasonable. We've been twice in two months with great results and a good experience both times.

The best nature and science museum for the kids we ever visited. Many hands on activities, the information laid out very smart and compact way. The birds collection is just AMAZING. We'll sure bring our grand kids to this wonderful place.

The museum had good history and well maintained. We took about an 1 hour of touring before heading back to the hotel. It was about 15 minutes from the hotel.

They feature contiunously changing exhibits, planetarium shows for all ages, local art and renowned permanent exhibits.

We come here all the time. What an awesome staff & museum. Exhibits are timely and changed to keep your experience fresh. Basement exhibits are our favorite. Loved the interactive Planet Earth ball on 1st floor. Nice, small park off to the side of the museum too.

Located in a smallish building on the campus of Franklin and Marshall College, it was easy to find. We didn't lull around... More

I took my 2 year-old grandson to this museum and he literally bounced off the walls with delight., It was such a lovely mix of animals, birds, space stuff, dinosaurs, and misc and not too big! Just the right amount of stuff, arranged interestingly, for a short-attention span such as my grandson had. I would go back again every time... More

What a pleasure to have this place so near. This is good for adults and children and they have activities for both. Sitting in the planetarium is fun watching the stars. Lots of things to do for everyone.
