Take time back into the prehistoric era by visting the Dakota Dinosaur Museum. The spectacular rock and mineral collection along with the 14 full scale Dinosaurs will amaze you. The 2011 season will feature several new exhibits. The two main new exhibits include Larry, a real articulated 25 foot long Triceratops skeleton & Montana, a real articulated 37 foot long Edmontosaurus skeleton. Other new exhibits include a real 8 foot long, 32 million year old, rhinoceros skeleton from North Dakota and a 65 million year old complete Tyrannosaurus rex hind leg. The museum lobby will feature highly detailed miniature one-twelfth scale sculptures of the two popular dinosaurs, Tyrannosaurus rex and Triceratops.
Located next door at the Dickinson Museum Center, history again is repeated, but several million years later with the tales of early settlers. Joachim Regional Museum showcases rotating exhibits each year dedicated to art and culture of southwestern North Dakota. The Prairie Machinery Building tells the story of early farming practices and the Prairie Outpost Park, just up the hill revisits the homesteads and early village life with historic area buildings.
The Ukrainian Cultural Institute features cultural exhibits of folk art, religous displays and houses a reserch library. The beautiful hand crafted "Psyanky" Easter Eggs are showcased, each one individually created with themes and stories.
