Item Description

A one year Family Membership to the world renowned Yale Peabody Museum.  And, a Fandex Field Guide of Trees.  Natural History 

By being a member you help in the mission of the Museum - to promote an understanding of the earth’s history and an excitement about the wonders of the earth through all the public programs — including exhibitions, cultural events, lectures, school programs, and summer camp. Member support contributes to the scientific research and the conservation and care of the Museum’s collections, which provide a remarkable record of the history of the earth, its life, and its cultures.

And, especially, as a member you contribute to one of the most fundamental challenges of the 21st Century--  the documentation and conservation of the world's cultural and biological diversity.  Global change brings new urgency to questions the Museum has asked throughout its distinguished history - what species exist on Earth, where they live, and how they have changed over time.

Educational activities at the Peabody  inspire people, especially children, with a love for the natural and cultural world and an appreciation of its importance to human health and wellbeing. .
