Based on one of the biggest blockbusters in cinema history, Jurassic World: The Exhibition recently opened at the Franklin Institute. On a cold winter day, Kate had to take her nephews to discover the dinosaurs for themselves. The exhibition immerses audiences of all ages in various settings inspired by the beloved film. Visitors come face-to-face with a velociraptor; and they get a rare up-close look at the most vicious dinosaur of them all, the Tyrannosaurus rex.
Created in close collaboration with renowned paleontologist Jack Horner, the exhibition is infused with interactive educational elements that are drawn from the real-world science of dinosaur DNA that allowed Jurassic World to come to life. Guests of all ages can now learn all about these incredible prehistoric creatures.
“The Jurassic World phenomenon is truly a cultural touchstone. It has been an honor to be part of a legacy that spans two decades, and it is incredibly exciting to watch the response from fans as a whole new generation is introduced to the franchise,” said Jurassic World producer Frank Marshall. “Jurassic World: The Exhibition extends the filmgoers’ experience by combining immersive environments with hands-on educational and science-based interactives, giving fans a first-hand realization at what they loved and connected with on such a personal level in the films.”
Individual and group tickets are available for purchase at www.fi.edu. Jurassic World: The Exhibition is open daily from 9:30 a.m. – 8 p.m. Jurassic World: The Exhibition runs in Philadelphia until April 23, 2017.
