Houston Museum of Natural Science to bring ‘fin-tastic’ new shark exhibit:
A new exhibition, “Sharks! The Meg, The Monsters, & The Myths,” opens to the public at HMNS on May 27.– A massive shark inflatable now adorns the outside of the Houston Museum of Natural Science ahead of a new exhibit that hopes to tell an alternate narrative about these powerful creatures.
A new exhibition about these creatures seeks to calm the “plethora of phantom fears and phobias” and correct the narrative. Opening to the public on May 27, “Sharks! The Meg, The Monsters, & The Myths” will feature life-sized models, tanks, photo opportunities, interactives, astonishing footage, and sobering warnings about extinction.
Elsewhere in the exhibition, a gallery on adaptions will explore the speed, anatomy, bioluminescence, and other biological characteristics of sharks. Guests will discover what makes a shark a shark and learn about the unique variations of each species. In another gallery, visitors will be tasked with debunking long held myths about sharks.
