Explore The Bishop Museum of Science and Nature and experience a world of discovery that sparks fascination and wonder in visitors of all ages. The Bishop connects guests to science and nature and inspires them to learn through fun, interactive, and memorable exhibits, programs, and special events. Unique learning programs leverage the Museum's thought-provoking exhibits and interactive environments, like the Mosaic Backyard Universe, offering a hands-on, educational environment. Budding young minds can learn about scientific investigation, engineering, and Florida’s natural history. There might even be clues that will reveal the secrets of the universe! The Planetarium at The Bishop is a remarkable resource for astronomy education and celestial inquisitiveness. In the state-of-the-art, 50-foot domed theater, visitors can sit back and explore the cosmos through immersive, virtual journeys into the depths of space. The Bishop also plays a much-needed role in the rehabilitation of Florida manatees. The Museum’s Parker Manatee Rehabilitation Habitat is a temporary home for manatees who have recovered from injuries or illnesses but are not quite ready to return to the wild. The Bishop Museum of Science and Nature is a valuable asset to the Bradenton/Sarasota community, as well as Florida’s Gulf Coast and beyond, encouraging future archeologists, nature lovers, scientists, and space explorers. Visit The Bishop and discover your own extraordinary experience. From manatees and mastodons to meteorites, there is something at The Bishop for everyone.
