Dippy’s long-term loan to Herbert Art Gallery & Museum comes after the venue underwent a vast refurbishment in preparation for Coventry UK City of Culture, enabling the gallery to display more works and major world-class exhibitions including The Turner Prize 2021. Our programme of events and activities is tailored to visitors of all ages, helping them learn more about the Jurassic period, fossils, and the evolution of the natural world we inhabit. Which projects are easiest to make depends on the specific pattern and how they are put together. Look for things like whales and chibi-style animals that are made out of simple shapes and don’t have a lot of detail. Those who will miss Dippy’s presence at the Natural History Museum will be pleased to know that a new weatherproof bronze replica of the much-loved Diplodocus specimen will be welcoming visitors in the grounds of the Museum as part of its Urban Nature Project, due for completion in early 2024. The gigantic structure, which was previously based at The Natural History Museum, will be in Coventry for the next three years. Dippy is a replica of a Diplodocus skeleton, which first arrived in London in 1905.
These family-friendly talks will last approximately 20 minutes, in a relaxed and informal environment. T-rex is the king of all dinosaurs and hearts when you stitch out this majestic creature on all of your prehistoric projects! You can attach it to a blanket, but I think this “ferocious” little guy is the perfect touch for your little one’s outfit. Not too baby-ish, not too scary! Dippy the dinosaur is a life-size, plaster-of-paris replica of a Diplodocus carnegii skeleton. It became the first Diplodocus to go on display anywhere in the world when it was gifted to the Natural History Museum by Andrew Carnegie on 12 May 1905.This T Rex Dinosaur Amigurumi Pattern is just what you need to create a unique gift.

These extended hours include staying open until 6pm on Tuesday 21, Wednesday 22, Friday 24 and Saturday 25 February and 9pm on Thursday 23 February. Visitors to the exhibition can learn more about Dippy, the Jurassic period and how the natural world we inhabit has changed over time, with talks and activities for all the family to enjoy. The full skeleton in its displayed pose is 26 metres long, 4.3 metres wide and 4.17 metres high.
