The Field Museum’s extensive conservation-related exhibitions allow you to explore Earth’s incredible variety of wildlife, habitats, and cultures to learn more about how each benefits and supports the others. Through these fascinating and thought-provoking interactive experiences, you’ll discover how you can help sustain and protect our planet’s fragile web of life.

From September 2003 through May 2004, The Field Museum’s
Year of Biodiversity and Conservation is offering exclusive opportunities to meet our scientists, hear lectures, visit special exhibitions, and participate in educational programs presenting Museum science in service to the Earth and its inhabitants.

You can even take our
new Family Adventure tour, focusing on Biodiversity and Conservation, which will give you a fresh look at some of our permanent exhibitions focusing on these themes.
