We had our wedding at ScienceWorks and it was the PERFECT VENUE! Our guests (kids AND adults!) had a blast playing with the exhibits and the outdoor area -- with views of Grizzly Peak -- was beautiful for our ceremony and reception. Regina and Kevin were super helpful to make our wedding everything we had imagined! Highly recommend not just as a science museum but as an awesome event space!

My nephew had a great visit to Ashland, and loved Science works. So grateful to have an excellent hands-on children's museum in our little town. Plus, this bear has watched so many kiddos grow up!
