Whether your Dad is a military man or a weekend warrior, celebrate him on Father’s Day with a visit to 
the exhibition: “Warrior Dogs: Honoring the Service and Sacrifice of America’s Four-Legged Fighters.”

This inspiring exhibition presented in partnership with the Tug McGraw Foundation celebrates American military and working dogs, taking a deep dive into the heroic partnership between military dogs, their trainers and handlers and veterinarians, and other soldiers with whom they serve. The exhibition includes 16 life size wooden sculptures by acclaimed artist James Mellick, including Cairo, who deployed to Afghanistan with the U.S. Navy SEAL Team for the Bin Laden raid, plus state-of-the art gear like the K-9 vest worn by dogs in action. A kid-friendly “petting dog” sculpture by James Mellick is also included, making it a perfect Father’s Day event for the whole family.

*Admission for Dad is free when accompanied by one full-priced adult or two full-priced kids’ admissions.
