Just a block from the river and walking distance to the heart of downtown Little Rock, the Museum of Discovery is a unique and fascinating attraction. The museum is a member of the Arkansas Discovery Network, which is a partnership of other museums and science centers that serve underserved and rural areas of the state.

The mission of this network is to increase inquiry learning, which is a process of encouraging learning through posing questions or problems, rather than just passing knowledge. Inquiry learning increases children’s involvement in the learning processes and can lead to improved comprehension. The Discovery Museum is a jumping off point for this learning process, working to provide accesses to this experiential education to all.
