Event description: 

Join the Working Women’s Network, Yale Peabody Museum, and the New Haven Free Public Library for a dinosaur event.

The Division of Vertebrate Paleontology houses one of the most important vertebrate fossil collections in North America, including many of the first dinosaurs ever discovered and named. This behind-the-scenes tour is your chance to see where fossilized bones from well-known dinosaurs like Brontosaurus, Apatosaurus, Camarasaurus and Stegosaurs are stored.

Your guide will be Armand Morgan, Senior Museum Instructor in the Education Office. Armand will also share specimens from the Peabody’s most recent field collecting expeditions to Arizona, the largest dinosaur bones in the collection, and some extremely rare Connecticut dinosaur fossils.

This is a family friendly event. Live human-generated English captioning will be provided.
