Museum Admission and Programs Free on Sunday

The San Bernardino County Museum invites the public to visit the museum in Redlands during regular museum hours with no admission fee on Sunday, April 1. In addition to exhibits of cultural and natural history relating to inland Southern California and the southwest, visitors will be able to see special exhibits including “Living on the Edge: natural disasters in San Bernardino County,” and “A Fan in the Hand.” Free admission is made possible by a contribution from Grounds for Enjoyment Coffee House in Highland.

From 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., families can “Rock and Roll” at Family Fun Day activities designed for children ages 3 to 12. “Experience life as a rock as you go through the rock cycle by playing ‘Rock and Roll,’” said Nancy Kirkwood, a museum educator. “Children can check out some cool rock specimens up close and learn how rocks are formed and re-formed. We will also learn more about the geology that we have to live with in Southern California.”

“Rock and Roll” is presented in conjunction with “Living on the Edge, natural disasters in San Bernardino County,” a special exhibit in the Fisk Gallery.

The San Bernardino County Museum is at the California Street exit from Interstate 10 in Redlands. The museum is open Tuesdays through Sundays and holiday Mondays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Everyone is admitted free on Sunday, April 1. Parking is free. For more information, visit www.sbcountymuseum.org.
