Our Mission

To ignite and foster curiosity about science and nature through inquiry and discovery.

To our wonderful community, 

​

As you may know we find ourselves forced to put Explorit on pause after the end of May. This means we have had to cancel summer camps - something that pains us to do but we feel it only responsible to give families a chance to make other arrangements. You can read the complete text of my message to our Friends of Explorit HERE

​

We at Explorit believe that our core mission of igniting curiosity through hands-on exploration of science and the natural world is more important than ever, but that it is time to rethink our business model. Putting Explorit on pause, although painful, represents an opportunity to reimagine a financially stable Explorit that can help our community revitalize hands-on science education, develop curiosity in our kids and support their engagement with the world of science and technology. We look forward to working with our community to realize these goals. 

​

We are still accepting donations. These funds will help us to steward our final school programming this year and will ensure that we have sufficient resources to survive a pause. Please go to our "Donate Page" to donate or reach out to us to make other arrangements.
