Description
This activity has been cancelled.
The California Science Center’s newest exhibit, Maya, features over 250 authentic artifacts – many on tour outside of Guatemala for the first time – highlighting the ancient Maya civilization of Mexico and Central America. Marvel at a majestic 9-foot-long sculpture of a jaguar warrior and gaze into a magnificent mask made of obsidian and jade. Through priceless artifacts and hands-on exhibits, discover how the ancient Maya built and sustained complex cities in the heart of a rainforest. With roots extending back 3,000 years, learn how the Maya live on today in their inventions that continue to shape our daily lives and the millions of people who carry on the Maya tradition and lineage. After the special exhibition, enjoy lunch and some time on your own to explore the Space Shuttle Endeavor or the Blackbird Exhibit and Garden before heading home. Tickets to the Mystery of the Maya IMAX movie are pending availability.Location
