Adventure Science Center recently completed a year-long journey to build one of Nashville’s most immersive science experiences, Fossil Frontiers.
The immersive exhibit invites visitors of all ages to explore discoveries spanning hundreds of millions of years, from an interactive excavation site to large-scale fossil displays that bring Tennessee’s prehistoric past to life.
With the arrival of its T. rex centerpiece, the exhibition is now complete, offering guests a journey through time.
“Unveiling the T. rex as the centerpiece of Fossil Frontiers is an exciting moment in the history of our organization. Exhibits such as this one have great potential to inspire the next generation of scientists,” said Leah Melber, Ph.D, President & CEO of Adventure Science Center. “With the support of our community and funders, places like this can change trajectories of people’s lives through curiosity and exploration.”
