Editorial review from Citysearch 6/13/2013

Love this place. 4 floors of entertainment and education. Plenty of things to do for young and old. There is a cafe in the building or you can go outside to one of the restaurants at Heritage Square. more

Family Fun 5/13/2009

The Arizona Science Center (ASC) is a favorite cultural attraction among families?both tourist and Phoenician?for good reasons. The ASC, which opened its doors in 1982, is located in Heritage and Science Park in downtown Phoenix. What makes museums good or bad for families? Many criteria influence that but the most important fact is that ASC gives educational entertainment. It is especially profitable for kids, where they are learning while playing. The ASC is a great place for families because it is educational, easy to get to, affordable, and well organized. more

Touching Allowed 7/29/2002

This is one place you don't have to tell the kids ""Don't Touch, just look"". There are more hands on exhibits than you get possible handle in one evening & your kids might just learn something while they play! more

Hands on 7/22/2002

Great downtown location, lots of hands on displays and a food court make this a nice family destination. The planetarium shows are also cool. The only drawback is that there's a lot of stair climbing to do in this four-story building. Pros: Cool displays Cons: Too many stairs more
