About the Science Mill
Since its founding in 2015, the Science Mill has established itself as a state-of-the-art, nonprofit science museum designed and dedicated to introducing, engaging, and exciting all students in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) through hands-on, interactive exhibits, and STEM programs. Located in Johnson City, Texas, in the repurposed, historic 1880-era Johnson City Grist Mill, we are a fully experiential museum, where kids learn by doing, experimenting, discovering, and most importantly, by being curious. In six years, we have attracted over 250,000 visitors, including students from school field trips and family visitors. In addition, we have conducted 110 summer STEM camps throughout the region, engaging more than 2,200 campers. The Science Mill operates on an annual budget of approximately $2.5 million and has a Silver GuideStar rating.
The Science Mill's mission supports our vision of a world where all kids, regardless of economic status, location, gender, or race, have equitable access to STEM programs. Our programs give students the support and confidence needed to reach their full potential in future STEM careers and become part of a science-literate community and problem solvers of the future. The Science Mill brings a special blend of entrepreneurial spirit and progressive educational programs and platforms to economically disadvantaged students living in both rural and urban underserved communities throughout south and central Texas. Our vision includes expanding throughout Texas, ultimately establishing a national presence. Diversity both within the Science Mill team and in the communities that we serve is a continuing goal and focus of our organizational efforts.
