When you arrive, you will receive an Avatar Passport. Take your passport to a check-in kiosk, create an account, and customize your own Avatar. Your account set up will include a few questions about you: your first name, last initial, birth date, gender, eye color and whether you want to enjoy the exhibits in English or Spanish.

If you choose, you can take your photo so that YOUR face becomes your Avatar! Your Avatar will be your tour guide at the Science Mill.

At each exhibit, you'll see a fun animation of your Avatar followed by videos, pictures, fun facts, and challenges to learn more about each exhibit. By answering the badge challenges, you will earn digital badges along the way- can you collect all 6 badges?

Be sure to reconnect with your Avatar online at the Science Mill’s EXPLORER ZONE. Logging in is easy with your account information. Learn more about the science behind the exhibits, STEM careers, and available degree programs.
