Kind and caring employees immediately attended to several broken exhibits, fixing them before we left so we were able to experience them.

What a fun place and educational to boot! OUTSTANDING service. More

When my kids were younger, they used to love this place. Can spend hours in here with your kids, lots to see and do. They have fun presentations, where they can learn while enjoying themselves.

A creative, learning place that is so much fun you don't even realize you are learning scientific principles. A gem of a place that you won't want to miss while in Ashland. More

A great spot for kid to explore. From babies, toddlers and teens, there's something for all. The smell tests, the bubble room, pulley seat, science room and more. My 3 year old grandson always finds something to attract his attention. More

Get ready to spend about two hours following your child from attraction to attraction... experiment to experiment at Science Works. It is an interesting place with tons of hands-on things to do. Always interesting! More
