The Science Museum of Western Virginia was the first museum of its kind in the state, and it offers hands-on learning opportunities for visitors of all ages.

There are a dozen fascinating exhibits, each of which explores a different topic in the STEM field.

Kids with an interest in the nature world will love the Fungi Kingdom and the underwater Touch Tank, while those who lean more towards engineering and technology will be drawn to the WonderLab and the How It Works exhibit. All exhibits feature plenty of interactive elements to facilitate learning and keep guests engaged.
