Outreach
It’s Science on Wheels! We roll up, roll in, and set up — taking the mystery out of science and presenting fun, inquiry-based programs directly to the students in your classroom, library, festival or youth center! If you can’t bring your class or group to the Museum, let us bring the Museum to you!
Our programs provide exciting learning opportunities that engage all students. All programs address objectives outlined in the Michigan Grade Level Content Expectation and include pre- and post-visit activities. Register for a Outreach Program today!
