  • Dia de los Huesos 2024

    The Texas Science & Natural History Museum is hosting Día de los Huesos, an event focused on exploring the mysteries of animal skeletons and their significance. Visitors have the opportunity to enhance their understanding of skulls and bones, with an exciting feature where they can bring their own bones and teeth for in-person identification by a paleontologist during scheduled sessions.

    In addition to the identification sessions, the event offers a variety of hands-on activities. Participants can engage in creative projects like decorating paper dinosaur skulls and crafting paper marigolds and butterflies. For those looking to express themselves in a fun way, face painting will also be available. Entertainment is provided by The University of Texas Mariachi, which is set to perform at 10:15 a.m.

    A scavenger hunt is another engaging aspect of the day, allowing visitors to explore the museum and have a chance to win a prize, subject to availability. All activities related to Día de los Huesos are included with museum admission and will take place from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., offering a full day of educational and entertaining experiences for attendees.
