Wilmington’s New Cultural Gem Unveiled | Wilmington News

Wilmington just leveled up with its jaw-dropping new Cape Fear Museum of History and Science — a 95,000-square-foot cultural powerhouse born from a $77 million decade-long dream called Project Grace. Opened August 18, it doubles exhibit space and triples education zones, plus boasts a 60-seat planetarium screening cosmic, historical, and natural wonders. Sports fans will geek out over a Michael Jordan tribute featuring his UNC jersey, Air Jordans, career journey, and even “Space Jam” memorabilia. Kids can dive into theater magic at the “Port City Play” area, modeled after Thalian Hall, where they perform or stage-manage. And don’t miss the “Amazing Pollinators” exhibit — interactive, nature-themed, and rotating every six months, running through January 2027.
