From May 2007 to April 2008, Voyages of Discovery will be an Associate Sponsor of the Ice Station Antarctica exhibition at the Natural History Museum in London, created in partnership with the British Antarctic Survey.
This major new exhibition for families explores the challenges which visitors to Antarctica face, on the coldest most remote continent on the planet. Ticket offers for the exhibition and discounts for Museum membership are available to our Discovery Club members.
Voyages of Discovery hope by visiting the exhibition more people will understand and respect the importance of this amazing and fragile part of the world. For a taste of that world, be sure to visit the exhibition soon.
