Dinosaur George will be visiting us with his traveling museum exhibit that showcases a diverse range of prehistoric creatures, with a primary focus on dinosaurs. Families will have the opportunity to explore impressive exhibit pieces, from massive dinosaur skulls to detailed fossil replicas from around the world and across many time periods. This interactive experience is designed to captivate young minds and spark curiosity about paleontology and the natural sciences. In addition to dinosaurs, the exhibit will feature other fascinating prehistoric animals, including fish and early mammals, helping visitors gain a broader understanding of Earth’s history.
The Neighborhood and Housing Services Department is continuing the series of city-wide free community conversations to learn about the City’s efforts in creating and preserving affordable housing. Community conversations highlight information about the voter-approved 2022-2027 Affordable Housing Bond, the City’s 10-year Strategic Housing Implementation Plan, and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s five-year Consolidated Plan. All sessions will feature facilitated discussions to gather feedback from the community on the impact and opportunities of the program. Conversations take place in an open-style format with the opportunity to engage at any point during the program.
