Dear Explora Family,
We recently celebrated the official opening of our newest exhibit, The Science of Kindness, developed, fabricated, and installed in partnership with @jenniferriordanfoundation.
The Science of Kindness provides a distinctive interactive opportunity for New Mexico families and visitors to explore neurochemistry, psychology, and other science related to the giving and receiving of kindness. It also gives the occasion to experience Jennifer Riordan’s mantra of being "kind, loving, caring, and sharing" through creative, hands-on learning. Visit anytime during our normal hours of operation.
The Science of Kindness exhibition is made possible by generous support from The Jennifer Riordan Foundation and Lilly Endowment Inc. in collaboration with @nmgasco, @wellsfargo, @dionspizza, @hbconstructs, @sandialabs, @fidelity, Bank of Albuquerque, @useaglefcu, @pnmtalk, and AUI Contractors.
