Galleries
The Mind Museum's exhibition takes off from a narrative that presents science in over 250 interactive exhibits through five interconnected stories. The galleries span nature in scale, from the smallest of things to the largest, and everything in between. The exploration also continues in Science-in-the-Park outside. We also have a Botanical Garden as a venue for other educational programs.
Atom Gallery: The Strange World of the Very Small
The Atom Gallery is the gallery with the most number of interactive exhibits. It contains the very elemental forces that are so familiar that we take them for granted like gravity and electromagnetism. It also presents the counterintuitive quantum world that resembles nothing in everyday experience, yet serves as the basis for much of the technology of today.
Life Gallery: The Exuberant Varieties of Life
The Life Gallery showcases the exuberance of a living planet in all its forms. It features the various habitats and the astonishing number and variety of organisms that thrive on our planet.
Earth Gallery: Nature Across the Breadth of Time
The Earth Gallery features the first permanent T. rex exhibit in the country along with other unique exhibits that focus on the forces at work in shaping and reshaping the Earth.
Universe Gallery: The Beginning and Majesty of the Cosmos
The Universe Gallery showcases humankind’s wondrous fascination with outer space. It features exhibits that show how all of life, as we know it, found its atomic beginnings in the stars. It enfolds visitors in the fundamental elements at play in the cosmos.
Technology Gallery: The Showcase of Human Ingenuity
The Technology Gallery is the largest of all the galleries. It is the only exhibition space on the second level, overlooking the other four galleries. This gallery presents technology not as a mere tool, gadget or industrial advancement but as means to flesh out human values and to help us become better humans.
The gallery is divided into five major themes with each theme occupying a Node. The themes of the Nodes are: How We Live, Who We Are, How We Know, How Things Work, and Here to There.
