Museum of Life and Science

Designated Caregiver Areas offer semi-private nursing locations as well as a quiet place to rest—away from the main exhibit floor. Caregiver icons on the Museum map show these locations.

A private nursing/caregiving room is available on the second floor of the main building. This quiet, enclosed space accommodates one family at a time and features low-lighting, comfortable seating, and changing amenities.

There is a cafe and a coffee bar to enjoy breakfast, lunch, snacks and hot drinks! A great place to relax too, before more science fun!
(Coolers are not allowed inside the Museum) but they have a huge picnic dome near our south parking lot if you’d like to bring your cooler and take your time before or after your visit.

Host your party at the Museum of Life and Science and you'll excite a whole herd of pint-sized party goers! They have standard and deluxe parties to pick from!
Ask about the train when you check in / Take a photo of the posted maps and plan where you want to spend your visit / Check the weather report before your visit! Rain gear, coats, or ponchos might be necessary.

The Gizmo Garage is great for school groups and younger visitors filled with toys and souvenirs, and the Elements Museum Store has a twist on the traditional store, with merchandise hand-picked by museum staff!

Whether you're traveling here or you want their educators to bring a Museum-style experience to you, they've got options for every type of group and every sort of need! Make sure to book your visit two weeks in advance so you can get their special group rates.
