The Science Museum of Long Island (SMLI), is a vibrant science education
center and 501(c)3 whose mission is to breathe life into science and kindle the spark of curiosity and a love of learning in young minds. First chartered by the Board of Education in 1963 under the name of the North Shore Junior Science of Museum, for over 60 years, we have been dedicated to fostering a love and understanding of science among young people through active discovery and problem-solving. We hold a steadfast belief that science is an exciting, fun-filled adventure and we invite everyone, especially the young explorers, to expand their scientific horizons with us, nurturing a lifelong love for learning and discovery.
