Center of Science and Industry (COSI)

My wife and I came to town to see the shark exhibit and were please with our trip. The science exhibits were well described and the interaction built into the exhibits was nice as well. This is a great place to take a kid or to just go learn some information.

As far as museums go there are a lot of engaging exhibits that are done well. Our group spanned from 7-81 years and there was something for all. We got there when it opened and it got very packed by lunch when we left. Sadly they were in between special exhibits when we were there. Natural history, ocean, and the city through time were of particular interest. Staff were helpful. I wouldn’t pay the $150 to get in again plus $12 parking. Definitely an expense. Probably makes more sense to get a membership if you live closer.

What a fantastic evening at COSI After Dark. Cocktails And Chemistry was superb for our first time. There are some things we will do differently next time like eat first and collect the passport on level 2 first and work down. We did have a great time! Some cocktail sample lines were 30+ min long.

One of the best science museums in the country! As an adult I spent over 4 hours playing, exploring, and learning via the great interactive exhibits! Exhibits are educational, interactive, and fun!
