I just purchased an annual family membership for $135 and it came with free parking, discounts for the store and Subway, and four additional guest passes to bring friends which was great! My children (ages 7, 5, and 3) LOVE THIS PLACE! We stayed there for 5 hours and they wanted to stay much longer. It is large, air conditioned,... More

What a wonderful place to take your kids for a day at the science center. Always worth the trip for the kids to learn new experiences.

From the website the center appeared to be for a 14 year old teenager as well... but above 7 years, most kids and teenagers will find it boring

The science center was just ok - nothing great but it was a rainy day so we went specifically to see the Star Wars special event which was really cool.

I recently visited the science center while shooting a wedding reception held on their vast terrace. If you are looking for a large space to host an event with a wonderful tree top view, then this is a pretty cool venue. In addition to your guests attending your event they can venture around the museum, which has interesting exhibits and... More

It seems that we have become science museum junkies! They have become our go-to in most cities we visit! This is a great museum! My little girl especially loved the "orange grove" exhibit, along with the Meerkat movie in 3D. The only thing that I can say is that if you are a regular patron of science museums, they all... More

From Dinosaurs to space you can learn it all here! There are interactive activities for kids and adults. We took my step daughter here and she loved it. They even showed a movie about coral reefs in the cinodome and it was absolutely beautiful! I would come here again!

We brought 6 children here ages 9-15 and they all enjoyed the exhibits for a couple of hours. We were looking to escape the rain for bit, but wow is this place expensive! What they don't tell you: you do not have to purchase the Star Wars exhibit, you can just go to the regular science exhibits for much less!... More
