Diggin' Dinos 2007

Memorial Day through Labor Day
They've been prepped, primped, and polished by local artists, and now the dinosaurs have hit the town! 2007 is the Science Museum's 100th anniversary, and in honor of that milestone, dinosaur statues are popping up all over the Twin Cities as part of the Diggin' Dinos summer celebration. Now's your chance to join in the hunt. Watch the street corners and businesses in your area for these one-of-a-kind prehistoric creations. Find them all, pick your favorites, and enjoy summertime and a century of science discovery!

At the end of this dynamite summer event, the dinosaur statues will be auctioned off to the highest bidders, with the proceeds benefiting the Science Museum as it launches another century of unforgettable science learning. Diggin' Dinos merchandise is available at the Science Museum of Minnesota's Explore Store. For more information, go to www.diggindinos.com.
