Beat the Heat This Summer with The Muse of Knoxville!

We’re well on our way to official kickoff to summer (even though the heat already feels like it!), and we know you are looking for ways to beat the heat and keep those kids entertained while maybe learning something in the process.

The Muse of Knoxville is the perfect way to have fun and learn!

The Muse is a children’s science museum located in Chilhowee Park (next to the Knoxville Zoo) and offers 4,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor exhibit play spaces and the area’s only public access Planetarium!

The Muse is now open Monday-Friday 9 to 5 and Saturdays 10-5. Their new “Muse Mondays” is a special time allotted for the youngest visitors that includes special activities, story time and more for preschoolers, all included in the regular admission.  There will be no school groups or field trips scheduled at this time to offer a safe and hospitable environment for the young ones!

The Muse’s activities provide experiences for the whole family and offer birthday parties, Science Connection Saturday (special hands-on science programs included in admission from 11:30am-1:30pm), Muse Mondays (a time focused on preschoolers from 10am-noon), summer camps and programs.

All of their Summer Camps are new! Each one of their camps is designed to inspire and empower your child at the intersection of science and art.
