San Diego Natural History Museum

Location: San Diego, California

Region: West

Website: http://www.sdnhm.org

Description: Founded in 1874, the San Diego Society of Natural History is the oldest scientific institution in southern California, and the second oldest west of the Mississippi. In its initial years, the Society was the region's primary source of scientific culture, serving a small but growing community eager for information about its natural resources. Today, its mission is to interpret the natural world through research, education, and exhibits; to promote understanding of the evolution and diversity of southern California and the peninsula of Baja California; and to inspire in all a respect for nature and the environment.

Profile: The Museum is interested in significant collaboration in the areas of research, exhibitions, and education in its partnership with the Smithsonian Institution.
