In 2006, the Museum welcomed more than 3 million visitors, including 500,000 school children – despite the limits imposed by facilities originally built to accommodate 200,000.
To meet this ever-increasing demand, the Museum is launching an $85 million capital campaign to build a new wing and renovate the current facility with the objectives of:
-Creating the most dramatic and comprehensive Paleontology Hall in the world.
-Expanding educational facilities, with the addition of space for 40 new classrooms, to accommodate school field trips.
-Renovating permanent exhibition halls and doubling the number of temporary exhibition halls.
-Expanding the parking garage and storage space for the Museum’s collections.
-Enhancing visitor services with a new consolidated gift shop and additional meeting space.
We need your help to make these plans a reality for Houston’s future.
Get involved – and help us build for the next century of science education in Houston.
