Is this wheelchair accessible?
Yes, Discovery Center is ADA compliant, and access ramps are provided for exhibits raised on platforms. Wheelchairs can be provided upon request at no additional charge.
The Discovery Center is designed to ensure that all learners and visitors, regardless of mobility needs, can fully participate in and enjoy our educational offerings. As part of our commitment to accessibility, the facility complies with the standards set by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). This means that all museum artifacts, laboratories, and exhibits are arranged on a single floor, creating an open and accessible environment that promotes independent exploration and movement. For exhibits that feature raised platforms or specialized displays, access ramps are provided, enabling everyone—including individuals using wheelchairs or other mobility devices—to actively engage with educational content and learning experiences alongside their families or groups. If needed, visitors may request a complimentary wheelchair from the Discovery Center to enhance their comfort and participation. By prioritizing accessibility, the Discovery Center strives to remove barriers to learning and foster an inclusive atmosphere where all participants can discover, inquire, and be inspired together.
