Ultimate Dinosaurs

May 31–September 1, 2025

Prehistoric creatures meet cutting-edge technology! Featuring 20 full specimens from locations in the Southern Hemisphere, this interactive exhibition brings dinosaurs to life. Augmented reality transforms intricately detailed skeletons into moving, flesh-and-bones animals to reveal a new breed of bizarre dinosaurs that evolved in isolation during the Mesozoic Era. Guests can learn about the adaptations that made them unique through hands-on activities exploring physical characteristics like crests and frills, stride patterns and more. Don't miss this DINO-mite paleontological experience!

Presented by the Science Museum of Minnesota. Created and produced by The Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto. Extra ticket required.

The Power of Poison

October 4–April 19, 2026

Sometimes lethal, sometimes lifesaving, always paradoxical. From a defense against predators to a source of magical strength, poison takes on many different forms. You’ll be infected with new-found knowledge when you explore poison’s role in nature, legend, history and human health.

The Power of Poison features theatrical dioramas, interactive modules, engaging media presentations and hands-on experiences. Wander through Colombia’s Chocó Forest, turn the virtual pages of an enchanted book on toxic plants, investigate evidence to solve poisoning mysteries, hear dramatic stories of forensic detection and explore zombie-making animal/plant duos. Separate fascinating facts from fantastical fiction while navigating toxic twists and turns!

The Power of Poison is organized by the American Museum of Natural History, New York (amnh.org).

Rescue

July 13, 2026–January 17, 2027

Search and rescue operations take place every minute, every hour, every day, all around the world. From air to sea to land, discover ways first responders help those in distress.

Rescue explores techniques, emergency situations and the various life-saving equipment used by rapid response personnel. Experience numerous aspects of emergency response as you take part in simulations portraying action-packed ways heroes assist in times of need, such as firefighting, surf rescue and sea-life survival. Use rescue technology and put your problem-solving skills to the test by flying a life-sized helicopter, escaping a burning building, navigating obstacles on a jet-ski, speaking to press about a breaking story and more.

This exhibition was created by Scitech Discovery Centre in Perth, Australia, and produced by Imagine Exhibitions Inc.
