The Science Center

The Science Center of Southern Illinois was founded more than 20 years ago with the goal of encouraging children to develop their natural curiosity and exploration through hands-on experience. We host more than 60hands-on science exhibits and see more than 60,000 visitors annually. The Science Center is a recognized 501(c)3 Not-for-Profit organization and is made possible by the generous contributions of our community members.

We offer hands on science education and exploration. The Science Center also host field trips, birthday parties, and room rentals for special occasions.
