Get to know our Natural History collection a little better in this unique program. Museum educators will take you through the 2nd floor exhibition gallery and to explore South Carolina’s past and present! Why is there a giant shark here? Why do we have a region called “the Sandhills” when it’s nowhere near the beach? What is that giant armadillo thing?! Educators will lead discussions with your students, and we’ll all learn how fossils can tell us what life was like long ago.
