Science & Nature Exhibits
Hands-on investigations for all ages
The EcoTarium's museum building features three floors of hands-on, interactive exhibits that explore the natural and physical sciences and our New England environment. Each year, the museum welcomes dynamic traveling exhibits, as well as houses permanent installations that make creative use of the museum's natural history collection and living wildlife. Our exhibits make learning fun and are designed to engage a family audience.

Sometimes it's stinky; sometimes it's crusty; and
sometimes it's slimy.
Explore why your body produces mushy, oozy, crusty, scaly and stinky gunk in Grossology: The (Impolite) Science of the Human Body, the wildly popular exhibit based on the best-selling book. With sophisticated animatronics and imaginative exhibits, Grossology tells the good, the bad and the downright ugly about runny noses, body odor and much more.
