The Leonardo
Children are naturally curious. So, there’s simply no better place for them to express that curiosity than at The Leonardo, Utah’s unique art and science museum. Explore the science of aeronautics in our popular FLIGHT exhibit, and then come upstairs to express yourself artistically. Wander our galleries to see what new hands-on activities are in store, and then move into our IDEA Space for a one-of-a-kind immersive exhibit unlike anything you’ve seen before. The Leonardo is the perfect place for the whole family—a museum where children are encouraged to touch, and new adventures are around every corner!
Please visit TheLeonardo.org or call 801-531-9800 to plan your visit today.
