Due to safety restrictions and an overwhelming response, we have reached capacity.  Thank you for your interest and we wish everyone a happy Halloween!

Relax and recharge at Creation Station for Tots, a new build-and-play zone designed with tiny tots in mind.

Currently we are not offering any indoor food service options other than light snacks and beverages from vending machines.  You are welcome to bring a picnic to enjoy in our Science Park.  There is also limited seating available indoors. There are a variety of local options available within walking distance.  You may re-enter the museum as long as you have your ticket.

Your museum experience is expanding, and now there's even more to explore—safely!  

• Visit the newly-reopened Sir Isaac's Loft, and the modified Tech Studio where our experts will engineer creative play and demonstrate 3D printing. 
• Tour curatorial items that highlight the design and build history of Philadelphia and The Franklin Institute. 
• See Legodelphia, an ultra-detailed LEGO® brick tribute to the City of Brotherly Love. 

First Thursday of the Month @ 7:45pm
