Many one-of-a-kind experiences await you at Exploration Place, featuring hands-on science fun for the entire family! Our various permanent exhibits will allow you to rivet an airplane wing, chuck buffalo chips, marvel at a miniaturized 1950s Kansas, rule a medieval castle, get comfortable in a giant meadowlark nest and more! We are also pleased to host various special exhibits throughout the year, so plan your visit as soon as possible.

In spring 2026, we opened the 6-acre outdoor Adventure Playscape for all ages. The Adventure Playscape features 10 interactive play areas, including Sunflower Meadow for younger visitors, Bison Hill, a Sensory Garden and the Textron Aviation Flight Adventure. When you need a break from playing, grab a bite at Graze, an outdoor café serving fresh food and snacks.
