What’s Happening at MOSI

You’ve minded for diamonds, traded emeralds, and built a portal to a whole new realm. Now it’s time to put your skills to the test in MOSI’s Minecraft Mania! Play and learn while tackling individual, small group, and full-team challenges that you build your computer skills as you work on perfecting your strategies, enchanting your armor, or even learn some basic coding as you defend your city from an alien attack!

Do you have an eye towards the future? Explore the robotics of today and build the robots of tomorrow. Design, program, and play with robots. Will your dream robot explore other planets, clean the oceans, rescue people, or just help do your chores?

This overnight camp-in also includes exhibit exploration, a light snack, sleeping at MOSI, a cold breakfast, and general admission to MOSI after the program. Please be prompt to ensure a smooth check-in and participation in all the fun activities! All scout participants will receive a
