After weathering Hurricane Irma, Frost Science is ready to welcome back the community starting Friday, Sept.15th at 9am!



The even better news: Frost Science Museum exhibitions and animals are safe, intact and make a great diversion for guests needing a break from the long days ahead. 

Looking to unwind this week? Treat yourself to First Fridays: Redux — a retro laser light show taking place inside the cool dome of the Frost Planetarium. Due to popular demand, they brought back First Fridays for an encore performance this month, and you're invited to rock out to the classic laser light spectacles you know and love. Reserve your seats now!

Exploring the Frost Science exhibitions can work up a healthy appetite. Starting Friday, you can fuel up at the new Food@Science — an in-house café serving up fresh salads, sandwiches and hearty dishes. On the run? Our grab-and-go option is perfect for a quick cup of Starbucks coffee and a filling boxed lunch.

You spoke, they listened! Starting October 1, Frost Science's new hours of operation will be 9:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. to better suit the needs of the community.
Please note: The Falcon Batchelor Bird of Prey Center and Batchelor Wildlife Center in Coconut Grove will remain closed until further notice. Frost Science will be sure to keep you up to date on any future developments.
