The Museum is an award-winning educational institution accredited by the American Alliance of Museums that offers FREE hands-on, educational programming for grades pre-K through college.

Think of a loan kit as a Museum in a box. Each thematic kit contains relevant artifacts and reproductions, as well as suggested activities for use in your classroom.

This out-of-this-world, 5-day camp experience includes facilitation by Museum staff and other experts, all materials needed for hands-on learning, meals and snacks, friendship, fun, and more!
