Discovery Center Afterschool Program

Discovery Kids Club Afterschool Program

Our Discovery Kids Club is for children from kindergarten through 5th grade who are interested in making friends, experiencing new things, and diving into the creative process through exploration and invention.

We place a strong emphasis on community building, leadership, and public service. Our educators will work with you to ensure your child’s afterschool adventure is a beneficial experience filled with making positive childhood memories.
