| About | Discovery World was born out of an idea that our community would be a much better place if we could leverage the awesome powers of science to encourage everyone to embark on their own path to discovery. Our first home was in the basement of a Boys & Girls Club on the East Side of Milwaukee. We soon moved inside the Central Branch of the Milwaukee Public Library. In 1995, we moved again and shared a building with the Milwaukee Public Museum. Under the guidance of local philanthropist and relentless tinkerer Michael Cudahy, in 2006 we built a world-class facility on Lake Michigan’s shoreline, part of the largest freshwater system in the world. Today’s Discovery World exists to inspire generations to discover the wonders of science. Through interactive exhibits, the underwater worlds of the Reiman Aquarium, and unforgettable and ever-changing events and activities we have become an immersive science experience for families, students, and everyone in our community. |
