Conservation Quest Exhibit
January 27, 2018 - April 29, 2018
Learn about energy – what it is, where it comes from, how we use it, and why it’s important to use it wisely. Conservation Quest delivers important energy conservation messages, inspiring you to make thoughtful choices about energy use to help protect the planet and promote healthy living.
“Join the quest to learn about energy and conservation,” invites museum director Charles Knight.
