MOXI – the Museum of Exploration and Innovations in Santa Barbara is gearing up for its grand opening in early 2017! Located near the train station on lower State Street MOXI provides an interactive experience with a focus on Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM). 17,000 square feet of exhibits designed to engage visitors. The building is the creation of the late architect Barry Berkus and was completed by the AB Design Studio.
The exhibit areas are organized into seven content areas called Tracks (Tech, Sound, Light, Speed, and an Interactive Media Track). Floor staff and volunteers will be there to facilitate the experience. MOXI’s third floor opens to a Sky Garden and the site of the Whitewater exhibit, a giant water feature that explores water pressure and fluid dynamics, as well as a weather orchestra with instruments powered by wind, sun, and humans. MOXI, the Wolf Museum of Exploration and Innovation will be open daily from 10 am to 5 pm. Adults $14, children 3-10 $10, and under 2 free. Individual memberships start at $90 annually. MOXI
