Museum Movie Night: Jurassic Park
Join us for an evening screening of the classic film Jurassic Park inside the museum. This event combines popular cinema with our passion for science and natural history as we explore the themes of genetics and prehistoric life. Doors open at six for a night of educational entertainment and community engagement.
Attendees will watch the full feature film on the big screen surrounded by museum exhibits. Before the movie begins, a short presentation will provide context on the scientific accuracy of the film. Guests can enjoy refreshments while reflecting on the complex ethical questions regarding cloning and nature that the movie famously raises.
This event is perfect for film enthusiasts, science lovers, and families looking for a unique night out. The atmosphere is casual, immersive, and designed for all ages to enjoy together. Whether you are a fan of classic thrillers or interested in the science of dinosaurs, this screening offers something for everyone. Please purchase your tickets online in advance to secure your seat. We look forward to seeing you at the museum for this unforgettable cinematic experience.
