Members get invited to members-only events and enjoy behind-the-scenes access and the chance to preview exhibitions before they open to the public. With year-round general admission, take advantage of family-oriented programs including Family Days, Nature & Me Storytime, and The Backyard, a play space for kids 5 and under. And don’t forget that members enjoy discounts on programs such as Nat Talks and after-hours events including the Secret Society of Adultologists.
Join us for a casual 30-minute Zoom conversation with Michael Field, director of experience design at The Nat. Do you remember your first visit to The Nat? The thrill of walking through the exhibitions and feeling immersed in San Diego’s natural history? It’s one thing to put specimens on display, but entirely another to display them in an interesting and memorable way.
