The Science Museum of Virginia is a science-focused cultural institution in Richmond, Virginia, founded in 1970 by the Virginia General Assembly. It operates within the museums and historical sites sector, presenting hundreds of experiential exhibits and interactive technologies to bring science to life. The museum hosts permanent exhibitions on space, health, electricity, and the Earth, complemented by visiting exhibitions from around the world. As a mid-sized institution serving Virginians and visiting guests, it emphasizes inquiry-driven learning and hands-on engagement. In recent years it has pursued regional expansion through partnerships, notably with the Naval Postgraduate School Foundation to develop the Northern Virginia Science Center.
