Bloomfield Science Museum, Science museum in Givat Ram district, Jerusalem, Israel.
The Bloomfield Science Museum is a science museum in the Givat Ram district of Jerusalem with indoor and outdoor exhibits. The displays cover physics, biology, and technology through interactive demonstrations and hands-on experimental stations where visitors can engage directly.
The museum was founded in 1992 by Peter Hillman and named after major donor Neri Bloomfield. Its creation aimed to promote scientific education throughout Israel.
Since 1998 the museum has run a competition for young scientists and developers, and it hosts science gatherings for children from kindergarten through high school. Its exhibitions are built around everyday phenomena, presenting science as part of modern culture rather than a separate field.
The museum stands opposite the Hebrew University campus in Givat Ram, within the national museum avenue near the Israel Museum. Exhibits run both indoors and in the open air, so allow time for both areas. The site is entered from the museum complex in Givat Ram, west Jerusalem.
A special section of the museum lets visitors create large soap bubbles using chains and sticks. This hands-on activity demonstrates scientific principles through play and captivates people of all ages.
