Liberty Science Center: "SUE: The T-Rex Experience"

Got a dinosaur-obsessed kid? Or are you a dinosaur-obsessed adult? Among Liberty Science Center's exhibits for all ages, they've got a giant visitor coming to open a new one this Saturday.

"When New Yorkers look across the Hudson River this week, they'll be able to catch a glimpse of an enormous T-Rex towering up Liberty Science Center, but they shouldn’t worry too much," LSC said in a press release this week, "as this isn’t the filming of Jurassic Park 4 — just marking the opening of a brand new exhibit, 'SUE: The T-Rex Experience,' starting on May 22."

In addition, LSC holds Junior Days for kids 6 and under on Thursdays and Fridays. Click here about the LSC Junior Days and activities.
