The Museum is closed until 2019! The U-M Museum of Natural History is currently closed as we move 4 billion years of natural history to the new Biological Sciences Building right next door. When the new Museum opens in 2019, it will be filled with interactive, hands-on, and minds-on exhibits that will engage visitors in discovering and participating in science!
