Science – and so much more – is cool at the Putnam! Make your own stop motion movie in our Animation Station then post it to our
Facebook page or tag us on
Instagram and see how many likes you can get! Or you can take a selfie that’s gone back in time in our
Black Earth | Big River exhibit. Better yet, grab your friends and enjoy a documentary film in our GIANT Screen Theater!
Note: Areas of the Science Center are now open on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The Theater is temporarily closed.
