Program types

Programs for schools, families, and returning explorers.

HOSC programming combines weekday educational visits with camps and public events that bring the museum back into family routines across the year.

Field Trips

Groups can plan for two to three hours on site, including exhibits plus a 30-minute live science show.

Science Camps

Camp messaging focuses on curiosity, experimentation, and age-appropriate science play.

Community Events

Family science nights and special events help the museum stay active beyond a single admission ticket.

Learn Anywhere

Videos, take-home activities, and lending options help HOSC reach learners beyond the museum walls.

Program rhythm
