Review:
The Eli Whitney Museum and Workshop, located along the Mill River, collects, interprets, and teaches experiments that are the origins of invention and design. The museum is more of a workshop for experimental learning for families, teachers, and students, rather than the typical contemplative, quiet museum atmosphere. Students and children can prepare kits in teams, assemble X-Wing Fighters, assemble toy trains, and much more. There are also things to do for adults as well who are visiting without children. The museum offers vacation and summer programs, birthday parties, and weekend walk-in projects for kids ages five to twelve.
