It\u2019s not hard to imagine why when the museum is home to over 700 hands-on, interactive exhibits like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exploratorium.edu\/exhibits\/sun-painting\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sun painting<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exploratorium.edu\/exhibits\/fog-bridge-72494\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the fog bridge<\/a> and the ever popular <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exploratorium.edu\/exhibits\/tornado\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">tornado simulator<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"916\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nptrust.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Exploratorium-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9807\" style=\"width:446px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nptrust.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Exploratorium-2.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.nptrust.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Exploratorium-2-300x286.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nptrust.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Exploratorium-2-768x733.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On average, The Exploratorium welcomes 600,000 visitors annually, with roughly 100,000 of those walking through their doors on field trips. Heather Snider, the Director of Individual Giving at The Exploratorium, says that one of the core values of the organization is to instill both informal and lifelong learning. Informal learning, she explains, is education that happens outside of the classroom. \u201cAll of our programs speak to that\u2026. it\u2019s about exploration, it\u2019s about being a kid.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Established in 1969 and founded by physicist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exploratorium.edu\/about\/history\/frank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr. Frank Oppenheimer<\/a>, the museum features both \u201cvintage\u201d and &#8220;contemporary&#8221; exhibits and activities, \u201cand they coexist in a really amazing way,\u201d Snider says. Oppenheimer\u2019s vision that anyone, no matter what their age or background, can access the world of physics is still the driving force of the museum\u2019s work today. \u201cAll you need to do is put a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exploratorium.edu\/exhibits\/pendulum-clock\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pendulum<\/a> in a room and let kids play with it and they will figure out how velocity and acceleration are interrelated.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To ensure that every child was learning and interacting on an even playing field, The Exploratorium pioneered <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exploratorium.edu\/education\/research-evaluation\/edge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">EDGE: Exhibit Design for Girls\u2019 Engagement<\/a>. A years-long project, EDGE researched how girls and women interacted and engaged differently than boys and men.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhen you have men developing exhibits and teaching science, they\u2019re doing it in a way that\u2019s more accessible to the way boys think about things,\u201d she says, adding, \u201cWe realized we could design exhibits in a way that better represents everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For instance, Snider explains that researchers discovered that when girls approach an exhibit, they tend to watch someone else do it first so they can learn how to interact, while boys would run right up and get hands on. In turn, the museum rebuilt exhibits in a way that two or three visitors could be engaging at a time, rather than just one at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSure enough, over time, the girls would gravitate towards those exhibits. An exhibit that girls had been skipping for decades all of a sudden became very popular.\u201d Snider says that the organization has great pride in what EDGE accomplished and that &#8220;this groundbreaking work has been adopted by science museums around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><div class=\"quote-container scroll-watch\">\t\n            <svg

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Exploratorium\u2019s appeal to kids of all ages (Snider notes that \u201con any given day in the museum, you\u2019ll see people from age 3 to 93\u201d) is possible largely in part to the efforts of donors who give towards the organization\u2019s efforts and overall mission. \u201cOur donors are motivated by the impact of what they see on field trips or from our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.exploratorium.edu\/visit\/reduced-rates\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">free access programs<\/a>,\u201d Snider says, adding, <strong>\u201cthey provide us with

they want to grant the next generation with the gift of education, Snider says of the nonprofit: \u201cWe elevate learning\u2026.we fundamentally believe that our society will be a better place if people have knowledge and are interested in facts.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Photos courtesy of The
