About Summer Saturdays: Summer Saturdays expand engagement opportunities at the GRPM to beat the heat inside the Museum or to embrace the heat by exploring the downtown corridor with us. In addition to the blockbuster Sharks exhibit, visitors can explore special themed activities almost every Saturday from June 14 to August 16. Each Summer Saturday focuses on a specific area of science, history, and culture, bringing a different theme and perspective to Museum guests. Mark your calendars to join us for summer fun!
