The Discovery Center is a hands-on museum experience that should engage children of a variety of ages. Its exhibits explore nature, arts, culture, science, heath and the environment. Among other activities, children can visit an arts and crafts table, climb on top of a fire truck, and freeze their shadows on a phosphorescent wall. The Discovery Center is open seven days a week, Monday through Saturday 10 am - 5 pm and Sunday 1 pm - 5 pm. Admission costs $6 for adults and children.
