The Discovery Center at Water's Edge will be a major regional science and heritage center located on the Route 40 corridor at Water’s Edge. We chose the word “Discovery” for our name because it describes what we want to inspire in the next generation – learning, curiosity, a sense of excitement, and unstructured exploration.
