The Museum of Science is an independent, nonprofit institution funded by individuals like you, corporations, foundations, and government agencies.
The Museum is the nation's first science center to be accredited by the American Zoo and Aquarium Association. Its live animal collection comprises some 120 animals of 50 species.
With 1.6 million visitors coming through its doors each year, the Museum is Boston's second most popular destination; only the Red Sox draw bigger crowds.
