Event Description

Join Katie Wedderstrand, Planetarium Educator, in Root Hall at the Museum of Arts & Sciences as she steps on her Soapbox to discuss the strangest prehistoric animals from the Ice Age! While the Pleistocene evokes images of woolly mammoths and sabertoothed cats, the epoch was filled with diverse and enormous animals. Exploring beyond our home here in North America, join Katie to learn about Ice Age animals from all over the world.
