Such a gem! Literally. Fans from 3 to 103+ will enjoy seeing the rocks, gems, minerals and fossils. Your guide will bring you back in time through the geological eras telling fascinating stories and facts. Enter the curtained room where they will change the lighting to reveal the hidden properties of various minerals.nMove on to the historical wing where you will see colonial tools and the remaining jail cell from when this building was the town hall and jail. Definitely worth a trip!
This place is awesome both from an earth science / geology perspective (tons of specimens, fossils and dinosaur bones), but also has a lot of historical information and displays regarding Long Island's development over the centuries.nnOur guide, Paul, was a great guy who clearly knew his stuff but, more importantly, loved it and loved teaching to my 9 year old (and myself as well).nnThanks Paul & Co.!
Most amazing hidden gem! So many amazing fossils and crystals and other awesome historical randomness. The guide was so knowledgeable and helpful! Will definitely be going back!
Took my nephew for a fossil event. It was an up close and hands on experience about making a fossil copy from a cast. Then photos and fossils from a exploration we’re shown. It was very interesting and the presenter had such knowledge and passion. It was a great time. As for the museum, there are a lot of interesting pieces packed into a somewhat small but very comfortable space.
A small, but well stocked museum.
