Science Museum of Virginia Presents The Polar Express

December 30, 2010 – 10:06 amNo Comment

The Science Museum of Virginia presents The Polar Express through Friday, Jan. 7.

A train is rolling into the IMAX©DOME as The Polar Express opens for a special limited engagement. Relive this timeless story of a doubting young boy who takes an extraordinary train ride to the North Pole. The Academy Award®-winning team of Tom Hanks and director Robert Zemeckis reunited for this holiday adventure based on the Caldecott Medal-winning children’s book of the same name, by Chris Van Allsburg.

The Science Museum of Virginia has become the premier center for hands-on science education in Virginia. Permanent exhibitions include interactive exhibits on a wide range of science topics. The Ethyl Corporation IMAX®DOME creates the ultimate “you are there” experience. Additional museum programs include visiting exhibitions, educational programming, overnight adventures, lectures, demonstrations, live theater and summer camps.
