cant believe that this is in Trenton! Quick trip for kids that dont want to read or learn, just look-35min but should have been longer for sure. Well worth $6 for anyone but it is a bargin if you love museams, learning, reading and seeing excellent displays!!! A lot of displays in a small area compared to large museam!! Very impressed. Ill go back without little kids to really enjoy more.

A nice little museum! The whale exhibit was very cool. Not a huge museum, I spent around 20-30 minutes looking around and it felt well curated. The volunteers were friendly and happy to share their knowledge with me.

Brought my 11 and 7 year old girls on a homeschool field trip here today and they LOVED it! Our guide (I'm so sorry I didn't catch her name!) was incredibly friendly and patient with our many questions on the fossil table, dinosaur, and whale exhibits. A very enjoyable experience. Would definitely recommend to all!

It may not be a big space, but they sure do a lot with it! The current collection features local fossils from hundreds of millions of years ago, some fantastic T-Rex reproductions, and a really great exhibit on whale evolution that culminates in actual whale bones/skeletons from beached (dead) whales on Canada's coasts. Dwayne, a museum volunteer, spent an hour teaching us about the collections and answering our questions. A really great experience!

This is a small but very cool museum that showcases fossils, and recreations of dinosaur and whale bones.

Short but sweet. The guide was great at explaining each of the exhibits and answering our questions. The kid's toy room was a big hit!
