presented by Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital from January 20 – May 7, 2023!
Based on the popular PBS Kids series, Wild Kratts: Creature Power! is all about discovering wild animals and their “creature powers.” The exhibition features animal experts Chris and Martin Kratt and a cast of heroes and villains familiar to fans. Using Wild Kratts technology and the powers of science and collaboration, guests will help the team solve problems and rescue animals from the villains!
Your creature adventure begins at the Wild Kratts HQ and continues through five distinct habitats:
-
Slip through the underbrush like a jaguar, swing through trees like a monkey, ride a slide like an emperor penguin and hang on a rope like a sloth in the tropical rainforest.
-
Learn about Australian kangaroos, platypuses and koalas.
-
Become an Antarctic penguin and slide off an ice shelf, peer underwater and balance on an ice floe.
-
Then, get a new perspective on your own neighborhood as you “miniaturize” to go eye-to-eye with beetles and birds, see flowers as butterflies do, catch lunch like a bullfrog, and create a creature chorus.
-
Watch an IMAX on the GIANT Screen: Flight of the Butterflies, Secrets of the Sea, Legend of the Enchanted Reef, Serengeti (Opening January 20) and more.
Exhibit is FREE with Museum admission.
