Greensboro Science Center

At the GSC, freshwater mussels are raised in the Conservation Center, where they grow on host fish until old enough to be released into local streams. Lead Technician Hannah is counting three-month-old Eastern Creekshell mussels in the following photos.

Don’t forget! The FLYWAY Zipline and the Rotary Club of Greensboro Carousel have extended Friday hours only in June! 🎠 Enjoy two extra zipline time slots at 5:15 PM and 6:30 PM, and ride the carousel until 7:00 PM! Don’t miss out on the extra fun and adventure this summer ✨

Our Zoo Treks are back! Learn from the experts as you provide enrichment and treats to our animals. Meet meerkats, cassowaries, lemurs, Aldabra tortoises, or trumpeter hornbills, & explore the GSC's zoo while learning more about these species and conservation initiatives for them

Happy Wednesday from Zephyr 🐾💕 You may be able to sneak a peek at the kittens as they now have access to the full indoor exhibit! Keep an eye out next time you're in our zoo. 🐱 #GreensboroScienceCenter #VisitGSO #Serval #ServalKitten #Kitten

Do you remember? In 1979, the GSC expanded its petting zoo with an aviary and a new red barn. This iconic feature allowed larger groups of children to learn about nature and science. The barn was positioned where the flamingo house stands today #GreensboroScienceCenter #GSCRewind

Drum roll, please 🥁🥁🥁 We'd like to ✨officially✨ introduce you to Persephone and Zephyr! Thanks to everyone who voted in our naming contest! These two cuties are still behind the scenes with mom, Kira, but we'll keep you updated on all the adorableness via social media 💕

Due to nearby cases of avian flu in North Carolina, some of our bird species will be moved to indoor holding spaces for their safety. They will return once the flu risk has passed. Our cassowaries and African penguins will remain viewable to the public.
