The Children’s Discovery Museum

In response to developmental needs and learning styles of toddlers through early elementary school children, The Children’s Discovery Museum is a hands-on, experiential, exhibits-based children’s museum.  The museum is located in a 3500 sq. ft., 120-year-old Victorian house abutted by conservation land. The natural setting and historical aspects of the museums' architecture are restored and maintained to compliment the community’s residential architecture and conservation land integrity. Exhibits are located in each room of the Victorian house, making creative use of all floors, walls, ceilings and closets.  The principal of “learning through play” based on the child’s natural developmental growth continues to be the underlying philosophy of all the museum's programs and exhibits.

The Science Discovery Museum

The Science Discovery Museum was developed in response to the community’s need for supplemental education and cohesive, interactive experiences in the sciences and math for older children, their families, and educators. The museum opened to the public in 1987 following a highly successful fundraising campaign which reflected local and national support from corporations, foundations, and the community. The exhibits and programs of the Science Discovery Museum are thematically based and coordinated according to specific sciences and are primarily designed for children ages six through teen years. Housed in an award-winning, three-floor, 8500 sq. ft. structure located behind the Children's Discovery Museum and nestled in a wooded landscape.  Exhibit theme areas and educational programs are designed and presented to engage the natural developmental growth of children and their need for in-depth experiences with educational content for discovery and exploration.
