One of the museum’s regular offerings will help visitors get in the Star Wars mood.
“Our Star Lab which is an inflatable planetarium so they can get a little sneak peek of the night sky while the sun is still out,’ said Perrotto.
And along with the Museum's regular exhibits, there will be plenty of other things people can enjoy.
“Honestly, everyone loves Star Wars, and the nice thing is we're going to have activities for the science minded and arts and crafts, so we will have a little bit of everything so anyone of all ages can take part of this,” said Perrotto. “We will have a create your own Yoda ears headband that you can wear. We will have a matching game looking at creatures from the Star Wars universe and comparing them to creatures here on planet Earth. We will also have a robot here that kids can drive.”
