The Utah Science Center (USC) opens in early 2010 as part of The Leonardo— on Library Square in Salt Lake City. USC will be the first science center to take interactivity and personal involvement to an entirely new level. Targeted to all who will respond to being treated as adults, USC will involve and empower its visitors to be participants – helping to enhance its exhibits and improve its programs. You are more than a visitor – you are more than a participant; you will help create, enhance, and design the experience.
Hundreds of volunteers have worked for many years to design USC's exhibits, activities, and programs.
USC's three ongoing programs help provide the experience and the foundation for a truly unique new science center.
The Leonardo's programs will enable an effective and comprehensive art, culture, and science experience for all participants.
Welcome to USC's current programs—and to its plans for opening in 2010.

We’re merging! A year of discussions and plans culminated Wednesday, April 23 with The Leonardo Board of Directors unanimously voting to merge with the Utah Science Center (USC) Board. The USC had previously voted for the merger. As part of the merger agreement, Suzanne Winters and Jeff Unruh will join Will West on an expanded The Leonardo Board—they also serve on the 5 member USC Board. The two organizations will merge accounts, payrolls, and all activities effective with the end of the current fiscal year on June 30. USC team, programs, and activities will be known as The Leonardo—Science. Joe Andrade will serve as Director of the science ‘arm’ of The Leonardo. There will be little change in or consolidation of the websites until later in 2008. So do continue to visit www.utahsciencecenter.org as well as www.theleonardo.org The Leonardo—Science teams welcomes the involvement of seven engineers from Williams Northwest Pipeline in Research Park.
