Akron Fossils & Science Center, Science museum in Copley Township, Ohio
The Akron Fossils & Science Center is a science museum with interactive stations, hands-on activities, and exhibits about fossils and scientific topics. The museum encourages visitors to explore these subjects through direct engagement with the displays and materials.
The museum was founded in 2005 and became a center for science education in the region. The facility developed as a place where people could learn and explore scientific concepts through direct experience.
The center presents various scientific topics and perspectives within its exhibition spaces. Visitors encounter both traditional scientific approaches and alternative viewpoints on these subjects displayed together.
The museum operates on weekends year-round and adds extra days during the warmer season. Visitors should check the current schedule before visiting, as hours change throughout the year.
Visitors can touch and handle genuine fossils rather than viewing them behind glass barriers. This chance to personally interact with real scientific objects makes the experience different from typical museum visits.
