This winter’s major exhibition at the Bruce Museum invites visitors to explore four different environments – fragile caves, deep soil, and the forest and desert at night — to discover the unique and unusual ways that organisms have adapted to living without light. The show features natural dioramas and mechanical, electronic and digital interactives that provide an immersive, entertaining, and family-friendly experience in the world of darkness. In the Dark is organized by the Cincinnati Museum Center.

Found in estuaries around the world, oysters are a favored delicacy for humans and play a valuable role
in ecosystems and economies. These unassuming mollusks have sustained Native Americans, cleaned polluted harbors, provided critical habitat, and created waterside cultures. Explore the science and natural history of oysters, particularly the Long Island Sound’s native Eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica).
