We’re hosting five days of science adventure at Tellus Science Museum!

This isn’t your average classroom; it’s a hands-on STEM escape designed to turn curious kids into real scientists during our one-week Explorer Camps. With a different theme to explore each week, every session offers a brand-new discovery.

Roll up your sleeves and sharpen your observation skills as you practice crime scene investigation one week, or master the art of collaboration by creating your own museum exhibit the next. From cracking the code to using creativity to engineer solutions to wild challenges, our junior scientists will tackle different adventures all summer long.

Come help us prove that the most powerful force in the universe is a curious mind!

MUSEUM MAKEOVER: What makes you say "WOW!"?

Explorers will learn what it takes to create a museum exhibit that WOWS guests. Explorers will become the architects of their own exhibition by making a diorama of a museum gallery to take home.

Did you know that’s the first question we ask ourselves when deciding if we want something on exhibit at the museum? Now, it’s YOUR TURN to decide!

During this special week, explorers will learn what it takes to create a museum exhibit that WOWS guests. Students will take a private tour with a Tellus exhibit designer to learn the ins and outs of curating an exhibit that will teach, excite, and engage museum visitors. Then, using miniature models of exhibits, students will become the architects of their own exhibition by making a diorama of a museum gallery to take home.
