The Sherman Museum | Sherman Texas

Do things really come alive at night in the museum? Like in the movie, Night at the Museum, The Sherman Museum  will give the public a chance to see for themselves on Thursday, June 16 starting at 7:00 pm. The museum will stay open until 9:00 pm so the museum’s current DINO DAYS exhibit can be viewed in the fading light of evening.

NIGHT AT THE M– USEUM will feature DINO DAYS stars “Ivan,” a 40-foot-long Tyrannosaurus Rex under near dark conditions, so children are asked to bring their flashlights. “We want to offer a different perspective to the exhibit. We want the kids to have fun interacting with the dinosaurs in the shadowy conditions of evening,” noted Executive Director Dan Steelman. As a special treat, the museum will serve popcorn and drinks in the 3-D theater while the 2015-release animated movie, Back to the Jurassic, plays. The 3-D film follows three kids as they travel back in time and are adopted by a dinosaur mom, while their real parents back home plot their rescue. The popular DINO DIG will also be available for children visiting the museum to experience a night time excavation of fossils with flash lights.

The Sherman Museum is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm and from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm on Thursdays. Admission is $5.00 for ages 5 and up and FREE for children 4 and under and museum members. Discounts are available to groups of 10 or more.
