NFOP and the LVNHM
The Nevada Friends of Paleontology is now a part of the Las Vegas Natural History Museum. This partnership gives not just a new home for the NFOP, but many new opportunities to take advantage of the resources and special programs the museum offers. Located at 900 North Las Vegas Blvd, the museum has long been known as "the dinosaur museum" to hundreds of thousands of Las Vegas children, families and educators. The museum's growing collaboration with paleontologists from all over North America will allow us to develop fun and exciting programs for NFOP members.
