Join us for Sensory-Friendly Hours at Explora on Friday, November 13, from 5:30–7:30 pm.
We’ve set aside extra time on the dates listed below for guests who prefer a less sensory-stimulating visit. Guests can access sensory kits with noise-reduction headphones, fidgets, timers, social stories, and more, along with reduced noise and lighting throughout the museum. Some exhibits may be turned off, and an additional calming space will be available for sensory breaks.
A resource table will also be provided by Skill Sprouts ABA.
Attendance is limited, so reserve your tickets in advance using the link in our bio!
Explora joined the AGC New Mexico & ACE Leadership Heavy Equipment Rodeo & CIEF Trades Day to celebrate career pathways in the trades for teens! Visitors stopped by the Explora booth to try on 3D-printed masks and watch mini 3D printers in action, exploring how creativity, technology, and hands-on skills come together in STEAM.
We love helping visitors discover new skills, explore technology, and see where their interests might take them. Thank you to AGC New Mexico and ACE Leadership for inviting us to be part of this event!
Spot the creepy crawlers, make your own pipe cleaner spider, and so much more! 🕷️👻

Explora welcomed the UNM Student Chapter of the American Nuclear Society on Sunday, October 18, to celebrate Nuclear Engineering Week! Guests measured radiation, explored a 3D-printed model of a nuclear reactor, and discovered the “half-life” of M&Ms.
During a conversation with a Sandia engineer about nuclear science, one adult visitor shared, “Thanks for explaining this to me. I’ve heard of it, but I’ve never really understood it!”
At Meet a Scientist, you can connect with local scientists and the fascinating ways STEAM shapes our world. You never know what you might discover, learn, or be inspired to explore next! 🔬
