In this season of gratitude, we are especially grateful for our supporters who help the Saint Louis Science Center inspire everyone to be curious and engaged in science.
The Science Center is one of the few free nonprofit science museums in the country, and your dedicated support—whether through memberships, donations, corporate partnership, tax dollars, or advocacy—truly makes our work and impact possible.
This year, generous support for the Science Center has helped us…
- Deliver free Science Center events like Community STEM Showcase; SciFest events like Engineering Expo, the Great Outdoors Expo, and Play & Creativity Expo; and the EV Experience, welcoming more than 21,500 people of all ages to get immersed in science.
- Spark curiosity for more than 1,590 people at the Science Center and in our community through programs like Summertime Science and Pop-Up Science.
- Reach the #1 spot in USA Today‘s 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards for Best Planetarium, #2 for Best Free Museum, and #5 for Best Science Museum; and be recognized by Newsweek‘s Readers’ Choice Awards as America’s Best Free Museum!
- Make science accessible to all through programs like Sensory Friendly Science Time and our first-ever Deaf Day at the Science Center.
- Celebrate the impact of exceptional St. Louis educators through the 30th anniversary of the Carol B. and Jerome T. Loeb Prize for Excellence in Teaching Science and Mathematics.
