Just a year ago, the future of miSci was uncertain

Just a year ago, the future of miSci was uncertain. Today, thanks to the support of New York State, Schenectady County, and miSci’s many dedicated advocates, the museum has been awarded a transformative $10 million grant. This investment will help preserve our archives, modernize our facility, and expand our exhibition spaces.

Join us at this year’s Big Bang: Building Our Future—and be part of the momentum. Because next year, we’ll be welcoming you to a reimagined miSci.

Whether you join this event or bid from home—you’re directly supporting miSci! And thank you to all the local businesses for making our silent auction come to life.

Our warmer seasons and skies are coming into full

Our warmer seasons and skies are coming into full bloom with May’s 🌸Flower Full Moon! This is a moon-name that is shared across big areas of the world—florals in Spring are pretty common. (“Florals? For Spring? Groundbreaking.”…and universally loved!)

Are you up for celebrating the moon, the night sky in general, and our flowering season all in one? Check out the idea of a “Moon Garden”! This is a garden planned with future nights in mind—with pale flowers, silvery foliage and some special flowers like night blooming jasmine, or the moonflower! These flowers open in the evenings for moths to pollinate and will give you a new way to love the full moon nights.
