The Denver Museum of Nature & Science is committed to helping to make a lifelong difference in the lives of students throughout the Rocky Mountain Region. We know educators across the state of Colorado work tirelessly to spark their students' curiosity and nurture their skills and knowledge. We also recognize the effect our state's current fiscal situation is having on K-12 budgets. These are the reasons why we've made it affordable to visit the Museum.
