The latest exhibition at the Natural History Museum celebrates the life and legacy of the remarkable Dr. Jane Goodall.

The exhibition explores Dr. Goodall’s life from her early years as a young woman with a dream, to her years establishing herself as a renowned scientist in Gombe, to her current role as an activist, mentor, and advocate.

The exhibition includes many engaging features, such as a hologram-like projection of Dr. Goodall who shares her memories in Gombe; a replica of Dr. Goodall’s research tent, offering a hands-on experience where visitors can envision themselves as scientists jotting down observations in their field journal; and interactive immersive activities, including one in which visitors can test their skills at matching the pant-hoot vocalization of a chimpanzee.

Visitors can share what actions they will take to help Dr. Goodall in her mission at the Pledge Station.

Becoming Jane: The Evolution of Dr. Jane Goodall is on view at the Natural History Museum from November 7 to April 17, 2022.

In accordance with the L.A. City Municipal Code Ordinance mandate, beginning November 4, all eligible patrons are required to show proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test performed within 72 hours. Visitors 18+ must also show a valid photo ID.
