Carlanne McCrystalJanuary 28, 2011February 2011 there are a lot of science fiction activities going on at EMP/SFM plus Free First Thursday is always fun! Read more
Scott MainwaringJuly 22, 2018Ugliest building in the US that's not owned by Trump. But not a bad museum inside.
Kimberly ByersJuly 15, 2016Not much music. Was so much cooler when it first opened. All they have is Nirvana, Hendrix. What about the rest? History? Blues? Jazz? Overpriced for not mucg to see. Sound lab was fun.
Jenn WallDecember 18, 2013What a terrible museum. With barely half a dozen exhibits it's a travesty to call it that. Don't waste the $20. Just take a pic outside, it's the most interesting part.
Janynne GomesJanuary 3, 2011I loved everything. It's a interesting museum to visit if you're a science lover.
- Catherine SheehanNovember 24, 2018Exhibits are dull & communicate poorly Graphics & way finding are terrible. Bad for groups, those with special needs & people who aren't fanatics. Confusing, unorganized, lacks cohesion & annoying.
