Did you know you can swim through the ocean or manipulate the giant fingers of a 30-foot-tall robotic hand right in the Texas Hill Country? These are just few of over fifty hands-on science and engineering exhibits and displays you and your kids can experience at the Hill Country Science Mill, a family destination offering a fun, interactive learning environment for all ages located about an hour’s drive west of Austin in Johnson City, Texas.
Hands-On STEM
As a result of this pandemic, some of our most cherished destinations have temporarily closed. That includes one of our gems here in Central Texas, the Hill Country Science Mill, a family destination that offers a fun, interactive learning environment for kids through cutting-edge technology-based exhibits, games, and programs.
The Science Mill has transformed their exhibits to virtual showcases with live broadcasts via Facebook Live, bringing science and engineering to our temporary home classrooms. In support of their efforts, and on behalf of the board of directors of the Science Mill, we are encouraging our friends, family members and colleagues to consider a Science Mill donation in recognition or thanks for others.
You can also consider becoming a member or donating a membership as a way to recognize or thank others, such as:
Looking for a way to recognize your employees who are going above and beyond during this difficult time?
Want to do something kind for a neighbor or friend?
Ready to show a partner how much you appreciate them?
Know a family in need who could use something to look forward to when things get back to normal?
