Tiptoe into the sunny season with Museum of the Rockies, whose space features new changing exhibition FROGS: A Chorus of Colors while the skies continue to clear. Open into September, here’s a closer look at what’s in store.
Leap into a vibrant, multisensory world of live frogs from around the globe! Discover singing, camouflaged, and wildly colorful frogs in habitats filled with live plants and rainforest vibes. Play with hands-on interactives, trigger real frog calls, and get nose-to-nose with nature’s most surprising superstars.
Explore every side of these amazing amphibians – their biology, natural history, role in human cultures, importance to ecosystems, and the threats they face in a changing world. This immersive adventure is fun, fascinating, and ribbit-ing for all ages.
Opening for the summer season this month, MOR’s Living History Farm invites museum-goers to experience what life was like in the Treasure State more than 100 years ago. The interactive exhibit is set to open over Memorial Day Weekend.
In 1989, the Tinsley House was relocated to Museum, bringing with it the history of Montana’s homesteading era. Skilled costumed interpreters will take you back in time as they cook over a wood-burning stove, demonstrate cooking skills and recipes from the 1890s, tend to the Heirloom Garden, and forge iron in the blacksmith’s shop. Take time this summer to enjoy the beautiful sights of the garden, the smells of home cooking, and the history of a time gone by that lives on today.
The Living History Farm is included with Museum admission. Find additional information, exhibit hours and further details through the MOR website.
MOR is open from 9am–5pm daily. For more information about these exhibits and other museum happenings, visit www.museumoftherockies.org. •
