Scientific Explorations

STEAM Summer in STEAM Lab

Every Saturday from 10–3 p.m.

This is a month for building, shaping, mixing, and transforming—where children bring their ideas to life through hands-on art and design.

Join us Saturdays from 12–3 p.m. for a rotating series of creative experiences:

  1. August 1: Color Mixing
  2. August 8: Cyanotypes
  3. August 15: Clay Play
  4. August 22: Pop-Up Neighborhood
  5. August 29: Bead Snakes

Throughout the month, families can also take part in Scavenger Hunts every Saturday from 10 a.m.–3 p.m. Complete a challenge and earn a prize while exploring the museum in new ways.

STEAM Lab Entry:

Timed wristbands are required for STEAM Lab access and are available daily throughout the summer. Each wristband provides a 30-minute session, supporting a comfortable and engaging creative environment.

August is about expression—the freedom to make something from nothing, to experiment without pressure, and to leave with something uniquely your own.

Admission:
• $10 adults
• $8 military or seniors
• $7 students
• $5 children ages 6–12
• Free for children five and under
• Museum Foundation members receive 50% off admission

Parking is free, and the museum is accessible to persons with disabilities.
