Ohio Valley Museum of Discovery's Mission
To inspire confidence in people of all ages to explore and discover the world.
Join us for an evening of discovery on Wednesday, October 23rd, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm. Grab a date or a friend (or one of each!) and come out to support OVMoD’s efforts to reach more students and community members throughout the region with our Fall Fundraiser 2024. We’ll be giving demonstrations, and serving drinks and appetizers. We hope to see you there! Adults 21 and over only.
Welcome to OVMoD
At the Ohio Valley Museum of Discovery (OVMoD), we believe that hands-on, playful learning with family and friends builds confidence and resilience for success in the future. We are powered by STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) and strive to be a catalyst in our communities for inspiring young minds, nurturing a lifelong passion for learning, and cultivating the future generation of innovators and critical thinkers. OVMoD is a hands-on discovery museum for visitors of all ages located in Athens, Ohio and delivers education programming across more than seven counties in the beautiful rolling Appalachian foothills of southeast Ohio.
