Description

Step back in time to experience the plants and animals of the Cretaceous Period! Join Selena at the Nicholas Conservatory to explore the Dinosaurs of the Forgotten Forest exhibit. From the artists of Applied Imagination come botanical sculptures of famous large dinosaurs including Tyrannosaurus rex, Ankylosaurus, Triceratops, and more, along with lesser-known early mammals. Let’s not forget the plants! Also featured in the exhibit are real prehistoric plant species from the Nicholas Conservatory collection.

This event is sponsored by the Friends of the Library. 

The tour is limited to 20 people. Register for the event by Tuesday, June 24. We'll meet at the Conservatory located at 1354 N 2nd St, Rockford, IL 61107.
