Connecticut Science Center

The Connecticut Science Center will redesign an exhibit about space to include up-to-date science, interactive experiences, inquiry-based public programs, and curriculum connections to STEM learning. The museum will contract the Science Museum of Minnesota as a collaborative partner in concept development, design, prototyping, fabrication, and installation of the exhibit. They will gear the exhibit toward family audiences, specifically children ages three to 13 and multi-generational families. The museum's program staff will develop and pilot new Live Science programming that will complement the gallery exhibits. The project goal is to generate enthusiasm and creativity to bolster interest in space, science and STEM careers in the fields of engineering, nutrition, and biology.
