Two people out of focus shopping in the curiosity shop

Curiosity Shop

Dating back to Renaissance Europe, cabinets of curiosities were made to showcase collections of extraordinary objects and the wonders and oddities of the natural world. In many ways they were the predecessor to the modern museum.

In our Curiosity Shop, you’ll find uniquely curated collections of products for the science geek, nature nut, and space case in your life.

The Curiosity Shop is open during regular museum hours. You do not need to purchase admission to visit the Curiosity Shop.

Please note: Gift certificates are not redeemable in the Museum Curiosity Shop.
