Museum of Science
About
The Museum of Science in Boston brings science and technology to life through more than 700 interactive exhibits, along with a rotating lineup of touring exhibitions. Visitors can watch a film on New England’s only IMAX Dome screen, travel through the stars in the Charles Hayden Planetarium, see indoor lightning in the historic Theater of Electricity, walk among live butterflies in the Butterfly Garden, and catch shows in the 4-D theater.
Spanning the Charles River between Boston and Cambridge, the museum also serves teachers with field trips, pre-K through grade 8 curricula and professional learning programs. Live presentations, robotics demonstrations and themed weekends fill the calendar, and the William and Charlotte Bloomberg Public Science Common hosts evening talks and events. Groups of 15 or more receive discounts and customized itineraries, and event spaces with skyline views are available for receptions.
