Dinosaurs Making Their Way To Bishop Museum This Month

Honolulu, HI – Bishop Museum is gearing up for the arrival of a dynamic traveling exhibit, Dinosaurs Unearthed.  This innovative dinosaur exhibit will open to the public on Saturday, September 26, 2009 in the Castle Memorial Building. 

“Everyone loves dinosaurs,” said Education and Exhibit Director Mike Shanahan.  “Some will remember that we’ve had dinosaurs in the past and have been waiting for a comeback.  It’s great to announce that the wait is over!”

This fall, Bishop Museum is happy to welcome the life-like collection of animatronic dinosaurs, skeletons, and fossils.  The exhibit will not just fill Castle Memorial Building but spill out of the building as well.  That’s because two of the moving, roaring creatures are so big that they will be outdoors. 

Other highlights include a feathered juvenile Tyrannosaurus Rex, reflecting recent theories that some dinosaurs were indeed feathered; a baby Triceratops; and a duck-billed Parasaurolophus.  The dinosaur exhibit also includes compelling and engaging interpretive content, interactive activities, and multimedia components. 

Dinosaurs Unearthed at Bishop Museum will run from September 26, 2009 to January 4, 2010.  It is sponsored in part by Bank of Hawai‘i, Horizon Lines, 7-Eleven, and The Honolulu Advertiser.

Dinosaurs Unearthed was most recently shown at the Cincinnati Museum Center, the Oklahoma City Zoo, and the Chicago Brookfield Zoo.  The exhibit is produced by the Vancouver-based company also called Dinosaurs Unearthed.
