They say and say and say that picture is worth a thousand words, so why don't they just make a picture about it? Well, that's because there is so much science behind the art of photography that it'd be hard to do. Venture to the Museum to experience an afternoon filled with hands-on activities related to the geology and physics of photography. Additionally, Museum visitors will explore the science of art, identifying the elements of art while browsing the Museum's new photography exhibit: "Changing Mines in America." Family Exploration Days introduce families to the myriad of educational resources available at WMMI (all programs meet State education standards), and provide another reason for families to become Museum Members! Customary Museum admissions apply to this program, and reservations are requested. Please call 719-488-0880. Location: Just off I-25 at the Gleneagle exit, #156A. Just across from the north entrance to the U.S. Air Force Academy.
