Dino Days: Local Fossils with Paleontologist Dr. Jonathan Hoffman

At the Museum

July 31, 2019 / 11:00 AM–2:00 PM

Join Dibblee Collection Manager of Earth Science Jonathan Hoffman, Ph.D., as he explains how the geology of Santa Barbara County makes the likelihood of finding a dinosaur here extremely rare. Discover what kinds of fossils are local to our area—including some magnificent mammals—and learn how to recognize them as you get a sneak peak of some of the marvels in our fossil collection.

Included with Museum admission. Stay tuned for other Dino Days with special programming on select days through the summer.
