What to expect

We Are Open During Development

We have big plans for the adventure playground, café, and digital art and S.T.E.A.M. interactive exhibits. We hope to be funded for these plans by 2026. In the meantime, we have all this space and we are open to the public! Volunteers from our partners and the community are making it possible to welcome you to Second Sky today!
