Powerhouse Science Center will host “Pterosaur: Ancient Rulers of the Sky” in the exhibit gallery May 27 through Sept. 17. A kickoff event “Soar Into Summer” will be held from 5 to 8 p.m. May 28 outside on the Carver Family plaza to celebrate the opening of the exhibit.
This traveling exhibit engages and teaches visitors about a group of flying reptiles that lived between the Late Triassic through the Late Cretaceous Periods (228 million to 66 million years ago) of the Mesozoic Era. This exhibition features fossil replicas of various pterosaur species as well as eight digital interactive stations showcasing the evolution, diversity and lifestyle of pterosaurs.
The exhibit is presented locally by Carver Brewing and through the city of Durango Lodgers’ Tax: Arts and Culture funding.
