the power of poison

 

Venture down a jungle path, step into a fairytale, and journey through history in the new exhibition The Power of Poison! This ticketed exhibition, normally $3 for members, is free during member preview hours from 10 a.m. to noon.

The story of poison is surprising at every turn. Uncover the secrets of nature's most dangerous chemicals, which have served as a defense against predators, sources of magical strength, lethal weapons, and lifesaving medical treatments. Discover the toxic species that live in a remote Colombian forest and trace the fascinating role of poison in literature, history, and myth.

Only members see Poison first! This members-only preview is the start of the Member Summer Adventure.
