Science & Tech
The Da Vinci Science Center in Allentown, Pennsylvania, serves the Lehigh Valley as a science museum and nonprofit focused on interactive learning and introducing children to STEM through exhibits, programs, and community initiatives. Founded at Lehigh University in 1992 as the SMART Center, it grew from hosting JASON Project broadcasts into a larger public institution, becoming independent in 1999 and adopting its current name after a 2003 merger. Moves in 2005 and again in 2024 marked major expansions. Its current downtown building features galleries on the human body, local environments, engineering, and interactive science, reflecting its role as a leading regional science institution.
