A Decade of Discovery
Since opening the New Academy 10 years ago, we’ve welcomed 15 million visitors, discovered more than 1,500 new species, and watched our indoor rainforest reach new heights. We can't wait to see what blooms next.
On September 27, 2018, the New Academy turned 10!
We're celebrating a decade of world-changing science in our new green building—and a passionate community of supporters who make milestones like these possible:
-
1.2 million youth visiting the Academy on school field trips
-
100+ Careers in Science interns pursuing STEM careers
-
12+ million observations made on iNaturalist worldwide
Help us continue to be the Bay Area's home for science—and an oasis of science innovation around the world—by contributing to our mission to explore, explain, and sustain life.
