MEMBERS

THE EXPLORATORIUM JOINS LEONARDO AFFILIATE MEMBERSHIP PROGRAM
Leonardo/ISAST is pleased to welcome The Exploratorium as a new  
Affiliate Member. The Exploratorium was founded in 1969 by noted  
physicist and educator Dr. Frank Oppenheimer with a mission to  
nurture curiosity in the world around us. Located in San Francisco  
and headed by Dr. Dennis M. Bartels, a nationally known science  
education and policy expert, the Exploratorium is typically perceived  
as a science museum, though it has extended its philosophy of  
learning beyond the museum’s doors by sharing its resources  
nationally and internationally with any who wish to take advantage  
of, or replicate, this innovative approach to exploring science, art,  
and human perception. Find out more
