Event Description

To help celebrate the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences' newest special exhibit, “Megalodon: Largest Shark That Ever Lived,” we are asking kids to illustrate their best and most realistic version of a shark in its natural surroundings. Judging will be based on artistic ability and scientific accuracy. Two winners from each of four age groups (Kindergarten & Under, Grades 1–3, Grades 4–6, Grades 7–9) will receive a prize and have their illustration displayed in the Museum Store. All entrants receive one free admission to “Megalodon.” Illustrations will be accepted through March 15, 2010. For more information, including contest rules and entry forms, visit us online at www.naturalsciences.org or stop by the Museum Store.

"Megalodon" opens Saturday, February 13 and runs through Sunday, May 9, 2010. Tickets: $7 Adults; $5 Seniors/Students; $4 Children (5–11); free to Museum Members. Tickets are available online at www.naturalsciences.org and at the Museum Box Office (919-733-7450 x212).
