Launched in September, 2014, The Natural History Museum is a mobile and pop-up museum that offers exhibitions, expeditions, educational workshops, and public programming. Unlike traditional natural history museums, it makes a point to include and highlight the socio-political forces that shape nature.
The museum’s programs appear within established art, science and natural history museums, in its 15-passenger mobile museum bus, and online at http://thenaturalhistorymuseum.org. The Natural History Museum is a member of the American Alliance of Museums and the Association of Science and Technology Centers. The museum is a project of Not An Alternative, a collective of artists, scientists, historians, theorists, and activists.
