The Leonardo is a contemporary museum in Salt Lake City that explores the intersections of science, technology, art, and creativity through interactive, ever-changing exhibits and programs. Its mission centers on fusing scientific and artistic experiences to inspire creativity and innovation across audiences of diverse ages and backgrounds. Located in a building with a decades-long history of learning and discovery, the institution emphasizes participatory experiences, workshops, and classes within a downtown cultural setting. The organization serves visitors interested in hands-on exploration and interdisciplinary approaches to knowledge, positioning itself within the museums, historical sites, and zoos sector as a space for interdisciplinary inquiry and public engagement. Based in Salt Lake City, The Leonardo operates with a small to mid-sized team and maintains a presence in the local cultural landscape through regular Wednesday-to-Sunday hours and evolving programming. A recent development includes a partnership with the Utah Black Chamber to provide exhibit space and highlight Black History Museum initiatives.
