Grab your safari gear and head to the Alice C. Sabatini Gallery for a tropical rainforest interactive maze! Reserve a visit time at tscpl.org/rainforest.
Swing like a spider monkey! Discover a rodent that weighs more than 100 pounds and a beetle that can carry more than 850 times its own weight! Rainforest Adventure brings the museum experience inside a fully interactive maze. Explore one of the least known habitats on earth. This exhibit is full of the sights and sounds of a tropical rainforest.
The journey begins in the highest treetops surrounded by migratory birds and radiant sunlight. In an effort to reach the forest floor, visitors answer questions about the rainforest. Incorrect answers lead to dead ends while correct answers lead them deeper into the four layers of the rainforest – emergent, canopy, understory and forest floor.
Created by Minotaur Mazes, Rainforest Adventure empowers visitors to make a difference after they learn how essential rainforests are to human health and survival, and that by caring for the rainforest they are caring for the planet.
