2026 Goals:
SEE is looking forward to celebrating two milestones in 2026: The 20th anniversary of the Millyard LEGO® Project and the 40th anniversary of our institution. Numerous interactives will be unveiled as part of this celebration in a new exhibit area titled the Millyard Design Zone. An ongoing pilot program called “Friendly Hours” will serve the immunocompromised and sensory communities with adaptations to the exhibit halls and no-cost admission for guests. Building partnerships and hosting special events to welcome diverse audiences to our center will continue to be a priority, along with discount programs for schools and families in need.
Fundraising Events:
SEE hosts several fundraising events annually: The Champagne Putt is a mini golf tournament which will be held at SEE March 25 and 26, 2026. A traditional golf tournament will be held on June 19, 2026. SEE Celebrates: A Night of Giving and Discovery, an invitation-only gala hosted by SEE founder Dean Kamen will be held September 24, 2026. On November 12, 2026, SEE has plans to debut a new STEM Challenge fundraising event called The Tinker Games. SEE also hosts an annual Kickoff to Summer weeklong event for families with themed activities at the Science Center scheduled for June 20-26.
