About Member Event: Museum Movie Matinee

Join us for a whole afternoon of family fun. Come face to face with the rarest and most endangered primates on Earth in Monkeys: Our Primate Family then watch The Jungle Book (2016) in the Auditorium at our first Museum Movie Matinee.

Raised by a family of wolves since birth, Mowgli (Neel Sethi) must leave the only home he's ever known when the fearsome tiger Shere Khan (Idris Elba) unleashes his mighty roar. Guided by a no-nonsense panther (Ben Kingsley) and a free-spirited bear (Bill Murray), the young boy meets an array of jungle animals, including a slithery python and a smooth-talking ape. Along the way, Mowgli learns valuable life lessons as his epic journey of self-discovery leads to fun and adventure.

During your visit don’t forget to check out our current exhibition, Monkeys: Our Primate Family which is free to visit with your Membership (advance booking recommended).
