Sloan Museum of Discovery reopens this weekend

SLOAN MUSEUM IS LOACTED at 1221 East Kearsely, Flint.

The Sloan Museum, which opened in 1966, is now roughly twice its original size and is designed to be more engaging and interactive. It features four primary hands-on learning galleries and one exhibition hall for special traveling exhibits.

At a ribbon cutting ceremony Thursday, museum executive director Todd Slisher spoke about the need to tell the community’s history from many perspectives.

“Not just about the titans of industry,” Slisher told the audience. “But also about the corner barbershop or the beloved neighborhood or the grandparents or great grandparents that worked on the factory floor.”
