Partner Days

Partner Days are back! Every other Wednesday this Summer, the Discovery Center is partnering with a different organization that connects to the themes of our current exhibition,  Designing Motherhood: Things That Make and Break Our Births,  which explores the arc of human reproduction through the lens of art and design. Discovery Center visitors will have the opportunity to speak directly with organizations doing vital work in our community as they share their stories and highlight how you can get involved.
