Mission Statement

ScienceWorks is a hands-one science museum located in Southern Oregon, with a mission to be a champion of science--inspiring curiosity, wonder, and exploration through engaging and interactive experiences.

Description

ScienceWorks Hands-on Museum is an interactive science museum located in Ashland, Oregon, serving visitors of all ages throughout Southern Oregon and Northern California.

From facilitating hands-on activities with the public, to helping out in the back office, there's something for every temperament or area of interest. Our volunteers compliment, assist, and partner with the core paid museum staff in practically every facet of operation. We recognize that volunteers provide ScienceWorks with resources of experience and talent which are unique and necessary. We strongly value this contribution , and hope to offer each volunteer a satisfying, productive, and rewarding experience.
