What Are People Saying?

It was beyond amazing there. Great staff. Was our first time visiting today and we loved every minute of it. Definitely will be going back.

Danny R.

A wonderful place to take children. It is educational, clean, and entertaining. Also affordable. Good job, Danville!

Jodi M.

Affordable and excellent for all ages. My eight and two year old have a blast, and there was relatable content for both ages. So much fun. I learned a ton and the Dome is incredible!

John H.

This museum truly allows your children to touch every display and help them create an imaginary world.

Tameka W.

One of Danville's best attractions! Friendly staff, knowledgeable personnel, a variety of exhibits, and a lovely location make this one of my favorite spots!

Juan C.

One of the best science centers we've ever been to (and we go to a surprising amount). The themes were great and the activities/exhibits were original and engaging. Everyone--from the 2 year old to the 5 year old to the 8 year old to the 45 year old--had a great time.
