Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

With admission prices for adults, seniors, students, and kids, and even a perfect family admission pack that includes up to two adults and four kids, the Humboldt State University Natural History Museum is a great destination for families. The educational exhibits inside this university-funded museum will teach visitors about the redwood forests of the region, prehistoric mammals that once lived in North America, and animals, insects, and plants that live here now. The museum also hosts many hands-on educational programs on topics such as wildlife tracking, honeybees, and other topics, many of which are family friendly.
