CSI: The Experience

CSI: The Experience highlights the process of scientific inquiry and real investigation techniques used to solve crimes. From DNA and firearms analysis to forensic anthropology and toxicology—sciences vital to unraveling the mysteries of crime scene investigation—visitors will be immersed in hands-on science with dazzling special effects direct from the CSI TV series. The exhibition is only open through January 4.

CSI: The Experience maintains the spirit of the popular television series and contains some graphic content. Parental guidance is recommended.

Advance reservations strongly recommended
Admission to the exhibition is included in regular exhibit gallery admission. However, due to limited capacity, tickets will be timed and dated. Because of the limited availability, we strongly recommend purchasing your tickets online in advance to avoid the lines.
