Northern New England’s Museum of Natural History
The Fairbanks Museum & Planetarium inspires appreciation for our place in the natural world and motivates our stewardship of a healthy planet.
The Fairbanks Museum was founded in 1889 by St. Johnsbury industrialist Franklin Fairbanks. Inside our classic Victorian building, you'll find a dazzling array of animals and artifacts, dolls an tools, shells and fossils, and much more! Take a trip through the cosmos in Vermont's only public planetarium, and see weather forecasts in the works in our Eye on the Sky Weather Gallery. A full calendar of events, workshops, lectures and field programs invites everyone to explore the nature of our world.  |

These and hundreds of other observations will blossom over the coming weeks. Take a look at what others are noticing throughout our region and let us know how this season is affecting your neighborhood on the Eye on the Sky weather blog.
