Deeply disappointing after the renovation. What happened to actual history and science? The idea…read morethat AI even deserves a full exhibit (predictably, centered on the African diaspora) is absurd. AI only does what you tell it to; who cares? Meanwhile, the actual nature and science is relegated to a room upstairs now. If this is the direction the university is going, I fear we may soon no longer even study science and history on university grounds at all. The globe with the projections on it for earthquakes and tsunamis is worth it, though.

This was a fun place to walk around and escape the heat! It is also great for kids as there are a lot of exhibitions and hands on experiments they can partake in. I enjoyed watching videos about the birds as I recently got into birding and seeing the various displays they had. There are 4 floors, a gift shop, plenty of bathrooms, plenty of places to sit and rest, and it's all free!

Then you have to pay extra for the special exhibit which is not noted on their website. For 4 adults and a 6 year old it was over $100 for a lack luster museum. Would rather spend my money in Detroit or Grand Rapids.

While up here last December, I discovered this gem while visiting the Art Museum directly across…read morethe street. It was closed for renovations and I wasn't able to visit at the time, so I made a point of stopping in while in the area. This seems to be a family friendly museum with a large kids area for them to explore. There's also a large area of Flint's history with logging, automotive, General Motors and cars. Also, I didn't have to pay since I wasn't a Genesee county resident? Otherwise I think it's $12 to get in if you are. The car exhibit is fabulous to look at. It's pretty much General Motors since it was a major Flint employer for many years. Overall I didn't spend more than a half an hour here cruising through the place. I thought there would be more, but there wasn't. I was hoping to have spent at least an hour but couldn't pull it off. No, I didn't read every single sign because not everything here appeals to me, but it is a good spot to learn and expand your horizons at.

The tour of the house was guided and it was just two of us and the guide. The guide had a wealth of knowledge and we appreciated what she had to say about the house and the Sharp family. One interesting and impressive fact, their well was inside the house. This way they didn't have to go out in Michigan winters to get their water. My daughter is a big fan of old homes especially Victorian style homes. While it's a Victorian style house it also had Italian influences in the structure. The art gallery had a World War I exhibit (100 year anniversary), sculptures and a quilt exhibit.

I'm a big space nerd and have been to a few different planetariums, but this one is definitely the best. At a cost of $7 per show, you can't ask for a better value. Now, I can only speak for the "adult" shows, but I've been to about 8 now and have genuinely enjoyed them all, leaving with some newly gleaned knowledge that I was previously ignorant to. Ending each show with a view of the current night sky and learning how to locate local constellations is also a really lovely feature. The visuals and acoustics are superb, chairs are comfortable, and the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. I also enjoy the videos and images throughout the building that you can look at while waiting. Note that tickets go on sale 1 hour before showtime; I usually will buy mine early (though have only once attended a sold out show), then walk around the downtown area or grab a beer nearby. It makes for a lovely evening or an afternoon break. All-in-all, I recommend the planetarium as an experience for all individuals, regardless of age.
