Unlimited access to the museum’s 50+ hands-on exhibits
When you book a birthday party package at the Science Mill, the entire museum becomes YOUR playground. Let your guests freely explore the grounds from the Science and Art Park to the Aquaponics Greenhouse, or organize fun games like exhibit bingo and scavenger hunts. Entertaining has never been easier!
A private movie screening
Birthday party groups get an exclusive movie showing of their choice to complement their museum experience. The Science Mill catalog contains titles for science movies for everyone that are both fun and educational. We can put on Oceans 3D if your kiddo’s a shark lover, or Amazon Adventure for the budding scientist.
Private room rental for party setup
Set up party decor, presents, and a birthday cake in a private room reserved exclusively for you and yours! This makes it easier to manage activities, keep the group together, and ensure that the party is organized and enjoyable. It also provides a comfortable area for guests to relax and socialize away from the main exhibits. Plus, the room has its own exit for convenient ingress and egress.
Easy gift-shopping at the onsite Science Store
The Science Store carries a range of science-themed toys, kits, and educational materials. Guests can pick up unique and thoughtful gifts for the celebrator, party favors that tie into the science theme, or simply as a fun souvenir from the party!
Beautiful Hill Country location
The Science Mill is situated at the heart of the scenic Hill Country, offering picturesque views and a charming small town atmosphere. There are plenty of great photo opportunities at the Science & Art Park that make for unforgettable memories. Plus, there are multiple restaurants and unique experiences nearby that you can easily visit pre- or post-party!
