Impression 5 Science Center is a dynamic, interactive space for families to play, create, and challenge their understanding of science. “Impression 5” refers to the five senses and the way each sense is engaged during your visit to the Science Center! Our mission is to facilitate learners in scientific exploration through hands-on exhibits and participatory educational programming.
This hands-on learning environment opened in 1972 and serves over 120,000 families and visitors each year! Now conveniently located in downtown Lansing on Museum Drive and right off Lansing's River Trail, families and students have access to self-led learning opportunities that encourage risk taking, problem solving, and team building.
