Real Bodies

Presented by Sloan*Longway at Sloan Museum

You’ll never see your body the same way again! REAL BODIES uses real human specimens that have been respectfully preserved to explore the complex inner workings of the human form in a refreshing and thought-provoking style. System by system, the exhibition provides an approachable and fascinating insight into what’s happening inside every one of us.

NOTE: This fascinating exhibit is recommend for 12+, although tickets will be available for all ages if parents/guardians feel their child will benefit.  To learn more about the REAL BODIES exhibit and Frequently Asked Questions, click on the FAQs here.

Open Now through January 14, 2024

This powerful exhibition explores life by displaying real, perfectly preserved human bodies and more than 200 anatomical specimens. More than a simple display of human specimens, REAL BODIES will connect audiences to a deeper sense of what it means to be alive. Founded on anatomical, cultural, and emotional narratives, the exhibition transforms the way we view the mysterious organism we all share – the human body – and reminds us of all the complexity and magic within us that we often take for granted. REAL BODIES digs deeper into the beauty of the body, mind, and soul than any other exhibition of its kind, and invites you to explore the entire human experience from the first breath to the last.

To learn more about how the bodies have been respectfully preserved and their origins, please check out the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) here.
