10 Years of Inspiring Minds
Since 2012, the Museum has sparked a love of STEM for millions across North Texas. As we commemorate our 10th Anniversary year, we look to the future and the countless moments of inspiration to come.
Chaired by Leaders Who Inspire a New Generation
“We are incredibly honored to chair the Perot Museum’s 10th Anniversary celebration. The Museum has become such a cherished part of Dallas and one of our family’s favorite destinations. We’re thrilled to help commemorate a decade of inspiring young minds, and we’re even more excited about the next chapter as the Perot Museum expands its community outreach to inspire a new generation toward a lifelong love of science.”
— Jessica and Dirk Nowitzki
CELEBRATING OUR 10TH ANNIVERSARY
Revamped Speed Wall
To kick off the Museum’s 10th Anniversary yearlong celebration, the Museum unveiled a revamped Speed Wall in the Lamar Hunt Family Sports Hall featuring champion athletes from North Texas.
Perot in the Park
In partnership with Klyde Warren Park, the Museum’s TECH Truck engaged and inspired kids during spring break with free, hands-on STEM-themed activities in the park.
A Very Special Field Trip
Our 10th Anniversary Chairs, Jessica and Dirk Nowitzki, joined students from Sarah Zumwalt Middle School for an unforgettable field trip filled with hands-on TECH Truck learning and fun.
“Becoming Jane” Exhibition Opening
To celebrate our “Becoming Jane” exhibition opening, Hamilton Park Pacesetter Magnet School students joined us for a special preview and a live Q&A with Dr. Jane Goodall herself.
Thanks to Children’s Health, our summer camp series went out in the community with four weeks of programming at CityScape Schools and another four weeks at For Oak Cliff.
