Friends share why they support the North Museum:

“As the mother of three children, I am always looking for new ways for my sons to be active. The North Museum is a safe, friendly environment that encourages my children to be hands-on with learning and to ask questions. It’s a wonderful resource that is fun for my whole family.”

– Cinthia M. Kettering, President of Operations, The Bagnall Shaw Company​

“I am a firm believer that students should have a wide range of experiences in education so they can grow to their full potential. The North Museum provides such experiences not just within collections, exhibits and a planetarium dome, but with outreach science programs such as the science fair.”

– Dr. Daniel G. Daneker, Subject Area Supervisor for Science and Technology Education, Conestoga Valley School District
