Community Partners

Building Relationships

The Museum's Community Partnership Program aims to develop multi-dimensional, mutually beneficial relationships between the Museum of Science and diverse communities throughout the Boston and Cambridge area so that each serves as a resource for the other. Together, we can improve science, technology, engineering and math literacy and strengthen the capacity of community centers to provide services for their members. Our Community Partners are non-profit programs that primarily meet during out-of-school time and work with under-represented youth or adults.
