Prep for the Past to Prepare for the Future
After discovery in the field, each specimen undergoes meticulous preparation to ensure it can be safely studied, handled, and displayed. These fossils play a dual role: they are key to ongoing scientific research and are also essential in our educational efforts, helping us engage students, families, and curious minds of all ages. As a nonprofit institution, we rely on the generosity of supporters to keep this work going. Your donation helps us purchase the tools and materials needed to prepare fossils for classrooms, exhibits, and scientists alike—ensuring these ancient remains continue to inform, inspire, and educate for generations to come.
