Santa Maria Valley Discovery Museum

The Discovery Museum is fun for all ages, with “please touch” exhibits and programs that explore ourselves, our valley, our world and beyond. Climb the Mission to Mars rock wall, dig for ancient fossils in the Discovery Tar Pits and flee from pirates on a giant ship…but look out for whales and those pesky seagulls! Saddle up and ride through a history of our valley, make your own family brand, live like a cowboy in the bunkhouse and plant, water and take home your own backyard garden. Stimulate your imagination at the Creation Station and make a life-sized bubble! At the Discovery Museum, the possibilities are endless, so come play and learn at the only children’s museum in Santa Barbara County. Tuesday-Saturday 10-5. Sunday 12-4.
