On July 10, the Las Vegas Natural History Museum kicks-off a year-long celebration to mark the organization’s 30th Anniversary.
July’s family-friendly anniversary party features ancient Egyptian-themed science demonstrations, activities, crafts, and critters – plus free ice cream sandwiches while supplies last.
The 30th Anniversary marks a significant shift for the Museum as Founder and Executive Director Marilyn Gillespie has announced her retirement, effective July 30, 2021. Gillespie is one of Southern Nevada’s longest-serving museum directors and has been at the helm of the Las Vegas Natural History Museum for 32 years.
