The whole family can learn about dinosaurs from Natural History Museum scientists, check out live performances, and preview the new collections as the museum officially opens its new wing, the NHM Commons. The free block party goes all day and will also be the launch for the NHM Commons Theater, which will feature daily presentations of a new T. REX 3D film and Ocean Encounters human-scale puppet performances.
