This November, treasures from London’s prestigious Natural History Museum come alive to take you back in time on an adventure of discovering scientific breakthroughs that make history.
ArtScience Museum brings the very best from the museum’s rich and important collection in this hotly anticipated exhibition that showcases the most significant treasures of the natural world. Hand-picked from over 80 million specimens, over 200 of the museum’s star objects will travel to Southeast Asia for the very first time. Selected for their historical and scientific importance, each prized treasure is a marvel that reveals a story of adventure and exploration defined by curiosity and discovery. Featured in this exhibition are scientific specimens and animals from the natural world, boasting a rich record of nature, works of art, gems and minerals, and the manuscript and collection belonging to some of the world's greatest scientists, including both Charles Darwin and Alfred Russell Wallace, discoverers of evolutionary biology as we know it today.
The Natural History Museum in London is the custodian of one of the most scientifically significant natural history collections in the world. One of Britain’s most beloved civic institutions, the Museum looks after a wealth of objects that have helped scientists re-interpret own existence and relationship to the natural world. The value of these treasured objects goes far beyond their price. Together, they have the potential to unlock answers to the mysteries of the past and the biggest questions species and planet might face in the future.
Running throughout the exhibition will be a treasure hunt designed especially for children, families and schools. Younger visitors will embark on a series of expeditions and adventures, searching for wildlife, learning about nature, and making their own contributions to the natural world.

Natural history is essential to expanding understanding of the diversity of life in a rapidly changing world – a 4.5 billion year old story that is continuing to unfold. It is deeply marked by human curiosity and longing, representing attempts to make sense of nature. Yet it also reveals complicated relationship with it, exposing hopes, fears, and questions about place in natural world.
Unfolding across a series of presentations and dialogues, Conversations invites you to contemplate encounters with natural environments and consider connection to an extraordinarily complex, fragile network of interconnected natural systems.
