Sneak a Peek
The Amuseum is now open for holiday preview hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4-8pm. Check out the photos below, or come by to check us out!
Preparing Skulls, Part Three
Here’s the final installment of our Preparing Skulls series! We think you’ll find that it all comes together quite nicely for these rather handsome skulls. But don’t worry, we’ll continue to showcase more behind the scenes action as we get the rest of our exhibits ready for display.
Soapberry Bugs
Soapberry bugs might make a good exhibit for the museum. Check out this short video about soapberry bugs and the soapberry vine that they depend on. With a little luck, we’re hoping to have both growing strong at Amuseum Naturalis this season.
Preparing Skulls, Part Two
Here we go again! Let’s check in on the skull soup we made in the last video and take a few more steps to get our skulls looking great for the museum.
Preparing Skulls, Part One
As we prepare the museum for the new season, we are excited to take you behind the scenes to see how everything comes together to make Amuseum Natualis. In this video, we go through the initial steps of preparing skulls for display.
Amis de l’Amuseum
Amuseum Naturalis est le premier et le seul musée d’histoire naturelle à Saint-Martin – une initiative révolutionnaire qui est gratuite pour le public et créée entièrement par des bénévoles. Nous avons besoin de votre aide pour financer la préparation du musée pour la saison. Devenez un Ami de l’Amuseum avec un don de 100€ ou $110 et faire partie d’apporter quelque chose de merveilleux à Grand Case!
Friends of the Amuseum
We made a short video about our Friends of the Amuseum program with some footage of Amuseum Naturalis from this past season, check it out!
Friends of the Amuseum
We’ve got some pretty big news at the Amuseum. First, we will be reopening for the 2016-17 season. Not only that, but we will also be enhancing our exhibits and adding to our collections. We will have regular hours in the evening several days a week and will be inviting school classes and youth groups to visit Amuseum Naturalis during the day by appointment. Best of all, the museum will remain free to the public!
In order to accomplish all this, we’ve created a new program called Friends of the Amuseum. Businesses and individuals can join to show their support for the Amuseum with a donation of 100€ or $110. You’ll be featured on this website and in the museum itself. Mostly, though, it’s a way to help bring something great to St. Martin.
If your interested, or to find out more, head over to the Friends page and get all the details. You’ll also get to see the local businesses that have already signed on to help us out! Download a fact sheet in English or French if you think your company would be interested in joining.
Ecole Mandarine Visit
We had a great time with the kids of Ecole Mandarine when they came to visit Amuseum Naturalis. We enjoyed the exhibits, watch some short documentaries about local wildlife and planted some Gaïac seeds. It was our first school visit, so we weren’t exactly sure how it would turn out, but it was great!
