our role in global outreach, making new investments in education and learning through our Bowes Education Center, and creating new opportunities to explore the landscape and environment in our Fisher Bay Observatory Gallery and Terrace. On the face of it, these may seem like very different initiatives, but for the Exploratorium, art, science, education, and outreach are all of a piece. The arts, for example, have always been central to the Exploratorium experience. Our founder, Frank Oppenheimer, saw art and science as two sides of a coin—two creative ways of looking at the world. From the museum’s earliest days, artists, educators, scientists, tinkerers, technicians, and others have worked side by side, learning from one another’s skills and points of view. Our community’s long held belief in these innovative juxtapositions, and our commitment to them today, has given the Exploratorium some of its most successful, and most elegant, exhibits—from Bob Miller’s iconic Sun Painting (1975), which mesmerized visitors at To Our Donors and Friends, the early museum (and still does), to Fujiko Nakaya’s Fog First, please let me say thank you.
