We’d love to welcome your group to the Maryland Museum of Natural Sciences for a guided tour of our brand‑new signature exhibit, “The Making of Maryland: 1 Billion Years and Counting.” It’s an unforgettable journey through the geologic story of the place we now call home told through fossils, rocks, minerals, and the dramatic changes that shaped Maryland across deep time.
Group visits are available during public open hours, and we can accommodate groups of up to 20. To ensure docent availability, we ask that all groups RSVP in advance.
Your visit includes: • A guided tour of the new exhibit (45 min) • Wheelchair‑accessible spaces and easy access for small buses and vans • Time to explore the exhibit and other parts of the museum on your own, become shark scientists, dig for fossils, and enjoy our collections displays • A unique gift shop experience filled with inexpensive, one‑of‑a‑kind finds
Admission is free, and a suggested donation of $5 per person helps support museum programming.
This makes a fantastic outing for employee teams, church groups, retirement communities, scouts, book clubs, and anyone looking for a fun day out.
If you’d like to schedule a visit, email mmns@marylandnature.org with your preferred date, group size, and any accessibility needs.
We look forward to hosting you!
