The Museum of Natural History and Planetarium in Providence, RI, founded in June 1896, is Rhode Island's sole natural history museum and houses the state's only public planetarium. With a mission to steward and interpret natural and cultural collections through exhibits, education, and research, the museum aims to inspire people of all ages and cultures to appreciate the natural world and gain a deeper understanding of themselves and the world.
For over a century, the museum has been a vital educational, scientific, and cultural resource, offering engaging exhibits and programs that provide opportunities for children and families to explore and learn about our planet and its inhabitants. Visitors can enjoy daily museum visits and weekend planetarium shows, with online ticketing available for planetarium show reservations.
