Dippy the Dinosaur is a beloved piece of public art located outside of the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. Dippy wears different seasonal carves and sometimes accessories for different occasions. Dippy the Dinosaur even wore a mask during the early days of the pandemic. In warmer months, Dippy is surrounded by pretty flowers. The landscape also includes nearby benches to take in the beauty of the area.

Give Dippy some love & visit him while at the museum! He stands tall & mighty & would love to see you! Makes fun photo opps & just fun to see in person!
Dave HardinDave Hardin
Outside, Dippy was festive in his birthday party hat! Go inside the museum to see him in all his glory in a diorama setting.

Even if you don't see the Carnegie museum itself, you can't miss this large sculpture that stands just outside the museum. Surrounded by beautiful flora and greenery, I'm amused at how the dinosaur is given different accessories (i.e Scarves, a COVID mask) throughout the years and is kept well maintained. I recommend seeing this beloved dinosaur if you're ever...

Dippy is a life-size fiberglass sculpture of a Diplodocus dinosaur whose fossil is on display in the nearby Carnegie Museum of Natural History. This piece of public art is free for everyone to see as they pass by. I really like how the museum employees dress Dippy with fun seasonal attire...
