Types of Outreach Programs:

Workshops

Get attracted to the world of magnets or fly a rocket through the air with the greatest of ease! Our educators lead your students through curriculum-based explorations of scientific topics tailored to engage specific grade levels. Maximum of 30 participants/session unless otherwise noted.

Family Nights

Invite the entire school community to your site for a math and science celebration! These programs are specifically designed to encourage students to explore 20 interactive activities for 2 hours with their families, teachers, classmates, and friends. You provide the space, 20 tables, and 20 volunteers. We provide the rest.

Super Science and Math Days for PreK-8th grade

• Interactive activities during the school day
• Science and math-based program for individual grades or the whole school

Custom Programs

• Want to see something else?  We can customize almost any program. You never know what’s possible until you ask!

Severe Weather Policy

In the event of severe weather, programs may be cancelled. The Museum will cancel a program if school is cancelled in the AAPS school system, the location of the event or in between. If you choose not to reschedule your make-up Outreach Program, payment will be refunded less a 25% registration fee, which may be applied to a future program. Rescheduling is the responsibility of the school and not the Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum.
