The Springfield Museums want very much to stay connected with our visitors whether you are able to visit us in person or virtually—we are here for YOU! And we hope you are all keeping safe and well.
With art, history, science and Seuss as resources, we are pleased to offer a number of ways to explore our collections, programs, and activities from wherever you might be. Enjoy exploring this expanded content—we will continue to update the information, so please check back often.
There is a lot to engage with on our social media on our social media channels as well. We look forward to seeing you soon #AtTheMuseums!
