Who We Are

The Sci-Tech Center is a year-round, hands-on museum of science and technology. More than 40 interactive exhibits designed to spark the interest and imagination of visitors are offered. The Sci-Tech Center opened to the public in March 1983 in the Dulles State Office Building in Watertown, NY. The Center is currently located on Stone Street in Watertown (Where are we?). The Center operates as the only hands-on science museum in Northern New York. Since its opening, the Sci-Tech Center has accomplished the following goals:
	Develop participatory exhibits, demonstrations, and programs in the basic sciences and their technological applications
	Enable the general public to gain a first-hand experience with natural phenomena and man-made devices
	Serve as a resource for formal educational programs
	Foster interest in scientific, engineering and industrial careers
	Communicate to the public a better understanding and appreciation of science and the derived technology
With these goals in mind, The Sci-Tech Center has developed and maintained numerous programs and activities(What do we do?). The Center is an educational and cultural resource for the community.
