Field Trips at Spark!
Bring your students to a learning experience built around curiosity, exploration, creativity, and hands-on discovery.
Spark! Imagination and Science Center is a hands-on children’s museum and community learning space where students explore science, engineering, art, sensory experiences, movement, and imaginative play through active engagement.
Rather than moving students from station to station, Spark! invites children to investigate, experiment, build, create, collaborate, and explore at their own pace in an environment designed to support meaningful learning through play.
Our field trips are ideal for:
schools
preschools and daycares
homeschool groups
after-school programs
summer camps
community organizations

Students are free to move through the museum at their own pace and explore exhibits based on their interests and curiosity.
Group Capacity: Our maximum capacity is 100 people total, including students, teachers, and chaperones. If your group is larger, many schools choose to split into rotating groups. For example, one group may visit Spark! while another visits a nearby community location before switching.
