The Aurora History Museum has partnered with the Denver Museum of Nature & Science, University of Colorado’s Natural History Museum, Dinosaur Ridge, scientists, and local citizens to provide tangible links to Aurora’s deep time in this exhibit.
“Prehistoric Aurora” is a journey through geologic time that will take you on a ride through the story of earth’s ancient past to the present; showing some of the fossilized plants and animals discovered in Colorado and literally, right here in Aurora’s backyard”, said T. Scott Williams, Director of the Aurora History Museum “ we hope that this immersive exhibit excites and educates visitors of all ages to explore the earth’s past and to imagine what life would have been like, when dinosaurs roamed the planet”.
