About Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum

The Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum, located in Ann Arbor, Michigan, United States, specializes in interactive exhibits with the goal of helping both children and adults discover the scientist within them by promoting science literacy through experimentation, exploration, and education.

The museum is located in the historic Ann Arbor Central Fire Station, which was the main station of the Ann Arbor Fire Department from 1882 to 1978. The fire department constructed a new central station on the same block, and the Hands-On Museum constructed a large addition to the historic firehouse that serves as the majority of the museum's exhibit space.
