Academy of Natural Sciences

Philadelphia, PA

Our local version of the New York model on a less overwhelming scale.

If you want to stay away from the big city, this is your natural history museum of choice.  … And it isn’t far from the Franklin Institute—the home of the sciences for young and old alike!

The Franklin Institute is to the sciences what the American Museum of Natural History is to natural history!
