Clark Planetarium/NHMU Partner Field Trips

Clark Planetarium 

Experience a new out-of-this-world field trip! Students engage with the wonders of the universe at the Clark Planetarium and then head to NHMU for a dino-mite self-guided field trip.    

Group size is limited to 120 students total. Visits booked to NHMU and Clark Planetarium on the same day outside of the arranged joint field trip experience is strongly discouraged due to scheduling complexities.
