At the Wisconsin Science Museum, we are building a community excited to ask questions, proud of local achievements in science and technology, and inspired to change the world.

The Wisconsin Science Museum connects visitors to the research happening right here in Wisconsin. Through our hands-on experiences and unique historic instruments, we show that even the greatest scientific discoveries began with simple questions and a little determination.

From lasers to nanotechnology to cancer treatment, we strive to make every topic accessible to visitors of all levels. We believe that knowledge is meant to share so we keep our museum free and open to everyone.
