April 25 through July 6, 2008
Location: Fawick Gallery
This exhibition features 18 photographs of nests in the collections of The Cleveland Museum of Natural History. These images explore the nest as architecture, revealing the distinct materials used by individual species of birds and the complexity of forms achieved.
At the same time the photographs investigate the mind of the collector who is driven to possess, preserve, and record what the bird has been able to achieve. |

Location: Main lobby
Our newest permanent exhibit, Jane, is a life-sized skeletal cast of a juvenile tyrannosaur from the Late Cretaceous. While some scientists believe Jane may be a juvenile T.rex, others say it is instead a close cousin, Nanotyrannus, of which The Cleveland Museum of Natural History has the only certain specimen. |
