Museums in Philadelphia comprise literally millions of specimens, artifacts, and documents in their diverse and important collections. How do scientists and researchers use these collections to demonstrate a changing world? From skulls to diaries to snails, every museum object helps tell the story. Check out rarely displayed artifacts from three institutions that show, in different ways, how the world has changed, how we know that it has, and how we can all be better citizens.

This event is co-presented with the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University and the Mütter Museum.
