Join us for VR Thursdays to take part in a virtual reality (VR) dissection!  The VR dissections, developed by Victory XR and Carolina Biological, utilize Meta VR headsets to provide an individually paced and fully interactive dissection experience. Each dissection experience lasts approximately 30 – 45 minutes.

Three different VR dissections (squid, sea star, or frog) will be offered on select days:

  • VR Squid Dissection: June 4, June 25, & July 16
  • VR Sea Star Dissection: June 11, July 2, & July 23

Sessions are sold individually. Admission to the Exhibits is not included. All sales are final, no refunds. Only registered participants are permitted in the classroom. Non-registered adults and children would need to wait outside the classroom. 

Guests may register online or in person at the Guest Services desk in the Museum Lobby. If you have any questions, contact the Group Sales department during regular weekday business hours at (256) 898-6312 or email groups@cookmuseum.org.
