12:00 AM - 12:00 AM

Huge and exotic dinosaurs  from China are at The Sam Noble Museum this summer!  From the frightening  Yangchuanosaurus, the 30-foot long king of the Asian Jurassic dinosaurs to the  little Jurassic Park movie-star Velociraptor, a dozen rare cast dinosaurs are  featured in this Mesozoic menagerie of mysterious dinosaurs in Chinasaurs.

Complementing the dinosaurs  are fossil dinosaur eggs and nests, along with numerous bones of the Jurassic plant-eating  Lufengosaurus and the Cretaceous plant-eating Psittacosaurus. Video presentations, maps,  signage, and artwork provide further details into the story of the impressive  skeletal displays.

Chinasaurs is the creation of dinosaur  explorer “Dino” Don Lessem, author of more than 50 books on dinosaurs for  children and adults and dinosaur columnist for Highlights Magazine for  Children. “Dino” Don has been exploring and researching Chinese dinosaurs since  1988 and personally arranged the loan of Chinasaurs dinosaurs from Chinese  paleontologists.

The museum is open Monday through Saturday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday 1 to 5 p.m.  (Admission is free on the first Monday of each month.)
