During a winter storm in February of 2021, our museum experienced an estimated $7 million in flooding damage due to burst pipes. We underwent repairs and renovations and reopened in August. We are currently working with an exhibit company to fabricate replacement exhibits. We anticipate them to be installed in 2023. However, we are excited to announce that we will install a two-story climbing structure in the fall of 2022! Stay tuned for more information.
The Museum of Discovery is Little Rock's premier science and technology center, and our mission is to ignite and fuel a passion for science, technology, engineering, arts and math through dynamic, interactive experiences. Our museum is one of the oldest in the state of Arkansas, founded in 1927. We became the Museum of Discovery in 1998 when we moved to our River Market location.
