New programs and exhibits include pop-up labs and demonstration areas for “fun science experiments” along with a new pandemic-related learning kiosk in the Life Sciences exhibit, the MOST said.
The museum will also include a guided path for visitors to follow that helps to condense traffic and “emphasize” safe distancing while enjoying the exhibits.
In addition, the MOST says it’ll have hand-sanitation stations and wipe-down stops located throughout the museum; exhibits and restrooms will be cleaned multiple times a day “with enhanced sanitation protocols;” and MOST staff will be wearing masks and screened daily.
“We are taking every step possible to create a safe and fun environment for our guests,” Lauren Kochian, president of the MOST, said. “We recognize the need for in-person learning after months of distance learning, so we are excited to introduce a new MOST with improved exhibits and increased safety protocols.”
