Agency Membership

Membership & Reduced Admission Program for Community Agencies
Gateway to Science serves as a regional resource for hands-on science education. As the only science center in North Dakota, our exhibit gallery is a great place for children and adults alike to explore. In order to assist agencies with clients that want to visit our gallery, we have established a program for agency membership. Agencies that serve at-risk clients are encouraged to apply for the membership level that best suits their situation. Download Agency Membership Form. Please direct questions to Beth Demke, Executive Director.
