North Carolina Museum of Life and Science

The Museum of Life and Science has served the community by providing engaging stem learning experiences and extracurricular programming since 1946. The Museum welcomed almost 600,000 visitors this year from the greater triangle region and beyond. The Museum's 84-acre nature park and over 300 indoor and outdoor exhibitions enable children and their families to engage meaningfully with Science, technology, engineering and math, preparing them to use stem learning as a way of understanding the issues they will face throughout their lives. Our mission is to be a place of lifelong learning, where individuals of all ages embrace stem as a way of knowing about themselves, their community, and their world.
