We don't know, they are doing it completely over.

In good news that we do know, it'll be free for all.

It’s wonderful, I can’t wait to go when it opens back up!

I used to go about 4 times per year. For like, 20 years. Every time I found at least one new thing to be super dorky and excited by.

I cannot wait to have a museum like that in my backyard again.

It’s fantastic. Used to go all the time as a kid.

Before shutting down for renovations it was pretty neat. I expect it to be just as cool when it reopens. they’re posting some cool progress pics on theirs instagram so I have high hopes.

Yes. It was very cool before, just needed some modernization (except the new gem hall, which was already new and beautiful). It's been a bummer to have it closed for years but I'm excited to see the update!

It certainly used to be. If it is somehow less cool after spending 3 years and $160 million to renovate it, I would count that as a pretty massive fail.
