We're kicking off Second Sunday Member Mornings—a brand new monthly perk just for our members! Starting July 13 and continuing every second Sunday of the month, the Museum will open early exclusively for members from 9:00am to 11:00 am. Enjoy a quieter, more relaxed visit, sip complimentary coffee at our member coffee station, and don’t miss a special member-only storytime with our Theater Team at 10:30am. It’s our way of saying thank you for being part of the Museum family!

Explore more in Pet Central and the ambulance in Safety Zone, where children step into the role of veterinarians and first responders. Little caregivers will use tools like stethoscopes, x-rays, and pet records to help plush patients feel their best, whether it's during a routine check-up or an emergency rescue!
