Ensuring access to opportunity for all—and tackling today’s global challenges—calls for effective local approaches to public engagement in science and technology.
The Association of Science and Technology Centers (ASTC) is a network of nearly 700 science and technology centers and museums, and related organizations, engaging more than 110 million people annually across North America and in almost 50 countries.
Our members support lifelong science learning, connect science and society, engage diverse communities, and partner to tackle global and local challenges. They serve students, families, and individuals of all ages with out-of-school learning experiences. Many work closely with teachers and districts to offer field trips, curriculum development, and teacher training.
Reach out to learn how you can connect with the work of our members, or with ASTC’s work at the national level.
