The Museum’s exhibits are carefully designed to nurture visitors scientific imaginations, build their confidence and competence, and encourage them to test, tinker, create, and wonder! Our exhibit philosophy responds to a persons need to learn through concrete interactions — touching, exploring, manipulating , experimenting and hands-on learning.
Exhibits offer a range of different sciences and topics including:
Dinosaurs, Electricity, Magnets, Music and sound, Live Animals, Botany, Geology, Anatomy, Space and flight, and American Indian basket collection.
