About us
The EcoTarium is a historical museum in Worcester, Massachusetts, with indoor/outdoor interactive exhibits to inspire a passion for science and nature. The EcoTarium offers three floors of interactive exhibits, shows in the Alden Digital Planetarium, daily Science Discovery programs, live animal habitats, hikes through forest and meadow nature trails, an express train ride around the grounds (seasonal), and unlimited play in the expansive outdoor exhibit, Nature Explore®. The EcoTarium is well rooted in the Worcester community as an organization dedicated to the study of science and nature. The private, non-profit institution was founded in 1825 as the Worcester Lyceum of Natural History and was incorporated in 1884 as the Worcester Natural History Society — EcoTarium's legal identity. A transition from the New England Science Center to the EcoTarium in 1998 refocused the museum in the natural sciences and hands-on exploration and discovery. Much of the museum's work today continues to reflect the ideologies and practices adopted almost 200 years ago.

Thank you, Senator Moore, for all you do in support of the EcoTarium. We are grateful that you secured this earmark in the budget for the EcoTarium, are thrilled to share this exciting news with our followers.
The EcoTarium in Worcester is a fun and engaging place for people of all ages to learn about nature, science, and the world around them. I am so proud to have secured a $250,000 earmark in the FY25 budget to support EcoTarium's community programming, animal care, and habitat improvements.

What a fabulous day! Over two thousand friends gathered at the EcoTarium to experience the solar eclipse together and learn about space science. Thank you to the volunteers and leaders of the David Clark Company for your support throughout the day! The Museum Education team brought the fun and the telescopes. WXLO shared their “sun and moon” playlist. Thanks to the entire team at the EcoTarium for an awesome community event!
