Only at a natural history museum can someone nonchalantly mention that "there's a full-grown gorilla somewhere in here."
Due to inclement weather and icy roads, we have decided to CANCEL tonight's Night at the Museum event (12/1). We will be back in 2023 with even more Night at the Museum events!
#Tacoma! We're hosting our last Night at the Museum event of 2022 tomorrow night here at the Slater Museum of Natural History. See specimens from around the world without ever leaving the city! This is a free, family-friendly, drop-in event.
