Reviews
"Small, but fun museum. Lots of fossils and bones. And it's free!"
"This was worth the visit. They have hands-on exhibits and some really neat displays"
"Cute free paleontology museum located on BYU campus! It might not be too big, but it's definitely family-friendly and can be done in about 30 minutes. They have a QR code to a self guided audio tour near the entrance, so if you're looking for a more in-depth experience, I'd recommend checking it out!"
"This museum isn’t too large but it is really cool. Entrance is free and they have several unique Utah dinosaurs on display. They have several replicas that are available to touch and feel (great for little kids) as well as real bones behind glass. They have full skeleton replicas that are great for pictures. This is a working museum. There is a large glass window where you can see into the workshop. We talked with one of the employees who works as a paleontologist which was very interesting!! This is a great activity."
