STEAM Storytime
-
STEAM Storytime is an interactive story time geared for toddlers and preschoolers, although all ages are welcome!
-
The story time will last about 20-30 minutes and will consist of songs, a story, and a follow-up project for children and their caregivers.
-
Each week we’ll read a story and participate in a project that allows us to explore various STEAM concepts.
-
STEAM Storytime will be held in the Community Rooms on the second floor of the discovery center.
-
Storytimes will take place the second Thursday of each month at 10:30 a.m. and are free with your museum entrance ticket. We’d love to have you join us for Storytime!

Sensory Friendly Nights
-
Sensory Nights are designed for children and their families who may have special needs, differently abled individuals, and those who have sensory sensitivities.
-
We understand that the museum can be a bustling place. During Sensory Friendly Night, we provide adjusted sound levels and limit attendance to create a calmer environment.
-
Sensory bags will also be available at the front desk.
-
Families can explore the museum at their own pace.
-
Sensory Night is held the third Tuesday of each month from 4:00 – 5:30 p.m.

Sponsored Sensory Nights are Free; non-sponsored months are $5.
-
We hope to make this a free event in the future through sponsorships.
