Lucy's Legacy:
The Overnight Experience

Explore Lucy's Legacy: The Hidden Treasures of Ethiopia in an exclusive, after-hours setting. Pacific Science Center educators will guide you through an introduction to paleo-anthropology as you explore human evolution and hunt for fossils. Delve into Ethiopian culture by creating a traditional Ethiopian dish and experiencing an early morning Ethiopian coffee tasting. This unique opportunity includes private screenings of The Sky Through Lucy's Eyes planetarium show, a live science demonstration on bi-pedalism, and Mystery of the Nile IMAX® film.
