What blows
YOUR mind?

Every day at our museums, we see visitors of all ages having mind-blown experiences. Engaging with the three T. rex in the Dinosaur Hall, getting up close to a 4.5 billion year-old meteorite in the Gem and Mineral Hall, spying a butterfly in flight in our Nature Garden, touching an Ice Age Mammoth fossil at the Tar Pits, or viewing a Western film clip at the Hart Museum—there are endless possibilities. 

This made us stop and think: how can visitors share these experiences with us and with others? 

So, we are launching a new campaign across L.A. — What blows YOUR mind? — to feature the objects, specimens, and experiences from our museums that amaze and delight our visitors and encourage everyone to come see for themselves, and then share with others, what blows their minds.
