About our programs
At the Herschell Carrousel Factory Museum we seek to lay a foundation for students in STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) art and history. Got code? We do. Coding has become an integral part of the future and its demand is only growing. So what does a carrousel museum have to do with coding? A lot! From our classic band organ’s use of binary coding to perform, to the network of circuits that make up our 1920’s carrousel we want to show students a historical side of STEM; with a twist. We are currently offering field trips, outreach, and virtual program options.
