As nationwide protests erupted after a Minneapolis police officer killed George Floyd, employees at the Museum of Science & Technology knew they wanted to bring about change within the Syracuse community.
The staff thought about how the museum’s work could have a positive impact on Black residents in Syracuse and decided to create an educational program aimed specifically at the city’s Black youth.

The Planters NUTmobile is back in Syracuse, and a local museum is salty about it.
“If anyone knows the proud owner of this please let them know it’s about to be towed for blocking my staff spots illegally,” wrote Lauren Kochian, president of the Museum of Science & Technology (MOST), wrote on Facebook Tuesday morning.
Kochian posted a photo of Mr. Peanut’s NUTmobile outside the MOST, taking up several parking spaces in downtown Syracuse.
