It has taken more than 31 months to approach the condition that it could reopen.
The grand reopening celebration will be May 22, with ticketed time slots for those who wish to attend as a way of controlling the crowd size in light of COVID-19 concerns. The public can request free tickets for 10-11:30 a.m., noon to 1:30 p.m., or 2-3:30 p.m., but act fast because the available slots are already being filled.
The facility will be closed in between each time slot to allow for deep cleaning. Social distancing will be practiced during the open periods and face masks will be strongly encouraged. Tickets can be secured online at www.eventbrite.com/e/science-discovery-center-grand-reopening-event-tickets-152702859363.
