Imagination Station is a science and technology center where everyone has the special power to explore. It is located in the Historic Wilson Federal Courthouse. Built in 1928, the building has been transformed into a science center for the new century. Renovations and improvements completed after a fire in 2000, have significantly updated the building, making Imagination Station an even better experience for visitors. Discover why and how things work with over 200 hands on exhibits related to space, health, the environment and more. See live animals up close, take a spin as a human gyro, walk inside a giant mouth, or watch your hair stand on end from 10,000 volts of static electricity. Toddlers 5 years and younger will enjoy the Curiosity Corner. Live shows and demonstrations daily in the Merck Science Court room. Discounts for group reservations in advance. Visit our museum store, the Science Depot, for unique science-related gifts and souvenirs.
