Been coming here for the past 20+ years from a kid to now bringing my kids! I love this place, next time we will be including the planetarium!

The museum was interesting for a short visit. The small reptile exhibit was the kids favorite, and the microscope. The museum itself appears in need of repair and/or refurbishment. The ornithology floor was interesting for adults/older children but with the low light and unlabeled drawers it's a little scary for small children depending on what is seen from my experience. The dinosaur room was a highlight. One and done trip from what we saw. I'm unsure if classes or small group sessions occur, if so that would be worth a visit.

Not inside, but just behind the museum is a park (Buchanan park) with pavilion & award winning dog park if traveling with a dog. The museum also sits on the corner of F&M college with its beautiful campus.
