Reading Science Center

The Reading Science Center aims to provide educational and entertaining hands-on science and technology experiences for the community, schools, and families.

We are a hands-on science center with 50+ exhibits. We are completely interactive and staffed by volunteers. We are located in Downtown Reading and support children, families, and local programs in exploring STEM.

What can new clients expect? They will be greeted by a large scale rocket coming down our staircase to the Center. They will be checked in by a volunteer and offered an explanation on how the Center could be navigated. We offer BINGO & SCAVENGER HUNTS to aid in your exploration of the RSC. A typical visit is 2.5 hours in length. There is also a classroom activity between 12 – 3p.

Parking available at the DoubleTree Convention Parking lot with 3 hour validation at the Reading Science Center.
