Preschool Power Hour will now be offered on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 10:15-11:15am.  We provide science demos and hands-on activities for your little ones. The same great program is offered twice a week to catch all the preschoolers and is FREE with Gallery admission.  Download the brochure for more information.

Did you know the Science Center has a homeschool science club for 2nd-5th graders? Check out our revamped homeschool schedule and format. Once a month from 10-11:45am, we provide social time for homeschooling families, hands-on activities for students, and additional resources for parents to extend the learning at home.

Please note that these programs take place in the lower level Education Center of Lindale Mall.
