Worcester, MA’s leading science and nature museum EcoTarium has announced the reopening of its indoor exhibits starting on Friday, July 9, 2021, including two new exhibits to inspire passion for nature and science: the Tree Houses and Design Zone.
The Tree Houses exhibit teaches explorers how to become environmental stewards by hanging out in trees and how trees help sustain life on Earth, teaching the importance of sustainable logging, animal tracking, building, and much more.
Design Zone is an interactive and creative exhibit highlighting the relationship between mathematical thinking and the creative process in art, music, and engineering. Design areas allow users to create and produce music, video games, and extreme sports.
