Imaginarium to move to Anchorage Museum

The Imaginarium Science Discovery Center has merged into the Anchorage Museum and will move into the museum's expansion, the boards of both organizations announced. The $106 million, 80,000-square-foot expansion should be done in 2010. The Imaginarium will close its Fifth Avenue location in September 2009 and reopen in the museum in April 2010. Its staff will continue delivering science education to rural communities during the closure.

"We are excited to have at the museum new, expanded space to offer enhanced permanent and traveling science exhibits," said Chris Cable, director of The Imaginarium.

"The addition of The Imaginarium to the Anchorage Museum will bring many more families and a new generation of young people to the museum," museum director James Pepper Henry said.
