Event Details:The Everhart is pleased to announce the opening of a new permanent gallery, The Rocks & Minerals Gallery. This new gallery reinterprets and presents a new and improved version of the “Rocks Room,” a well-known and beloved exhibit that was retired more than a decade ago. Created in the 1950s, the original “Rocks Room” was a small closet gallery featuring “glow-in-the-dark” rocks. It was a must-see experience for children from throughout Northeast Pennsylvania who visited during the 1960s and 1970s, and remained the most popular element of the Museum into the 1980s. The reopening of this permanent gallery cements the Everhart Museum’s commitment to featuring more of its natural sciences collection and awakening the wonder and magic of museums in the child still found in all of us. For more information on the exhibit, contact the Everhart Museum at 570-346-7186 or email: general.information@everhart-museum.org.
