Museum of the Rockies proudly invites you to celebrate the Member opening of our highly anticipated changing exhibit, Becoming Jane: The Evolution of Dr. Jane Goodall.

Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE, founder of the Jane Goodall Institute and UN Messenger of Peace, braved the unknown to give the world a remarkable window into humankind’s closest living relatives: chimpanzees.

In this hands-on, transportive multimedia exhibition celebrating her extraordinary life and work, visitors will explore Dr. Goodall’s early years through iconic images and a multiscreen experience and venture on an immersive projection of Tanzania’s Gombe Stream National Park where she did her famous behavioral research on chimps.

Visitors will also see a life-size hologram of Dr. Goodall, enter a replica of her research tent, and learn about her current role as a leader in community-centered conservation and youth empowerment. Finally, visitors will find out what they can do today to make a positive impact in the world. 
This evening will include remarks from Anna Rathman, Executive Director of the Jane Goodall Institute USA, and renowned animal behavior and primatologist Isabel Behncke Izquierdo.
