Roar No More: Sensory-Friendly Dino Days will take place on March 30 & 31, and again on April 20 & 21 for a total of four special days when our animatronic dinosaurs will be silenced, but continue to move. These days are designed for guests who experience sensory sensitivities or may find the dino roaring sounds overwhelming. We want everyone to feel welcome and comfortable while enjoying Dinos in the Desert.

We're excited to introduce the Desert Museum's Indigenous Artist Program. Throughout the spring and summer of 2025, we're hosting Indigenous Artists to display, demonstrate, and sell their work. From horsehair basket weaving and jewelry making, to clay dolls and plein air painting... there's so much to see and learn! Artists and dates vary. Check out website and social media to stay up-to-date on this recurring event!

Join us for our 32nd annual signature event, the Desert Gala on Sunday, April 27, 2025 from 5:00 p.m.—9:00 p.m. As our most magical night and our largest fundraiser of the year, enjoy local culinary delicacies, craft libations, and up-close visits with some famous animal residents. Browse the unique array of silent auction items, bid on premium live auction items, and get your chance to win the bronze sculpture raffle!
