Imax Movies at the Air and Space Museum


The Virginia Air and Space Museum has the largest movie screen in Hampton Roads and has showings in 3d. I actually saw Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban there with my dad when I was younger. The tickets can be purchased in addition to the exhibits, but the real bang for your buck is to get the family membership. With the membership the movies are included, which is really rare for memberships. This makes it so that the membership pays for itself in two visits. 

Right now the two showings are Into America's Wild, and Backyard WildernessInto America's Wild plays Monday-Saturday at 11, 1, and 3. It follows two Native Americans in a cross-country journey to some of America's hidden wonders. Backyard Wilderness plays daily at noon. It takes viewers into a close up view of everything happening in their backyard. To my surprise, both boys sat through the 40 minutes of our show, and we can't wait to go back and see the other.
