B-MOVIES AND BAD SCIENCE All ages<br />
Join members of the Museum’s history and science staff for a light-hearted<br />
exploration of the “science” behind some of Hollywood’s creature features.<br />
You will watch the movie and then discover what makes these creatures and<br />
plots implausible in reality, and get to see some of their “real life” counterparts<br />
in the Museum’s collection. “Tarantula” on August 10, 2008 at 2:00 p.m. and<br />
“Them” on August 24, 2008 at 2:00 p.m.<br />

PAVILION OF WINGS All ages<br />
Running through early September 1, is the Pavilion of Wings, a lush habitat<br />
