From the human cell to outer space

Sitting on four acres within Downtown Miami’s waterfront Maurice A. Ferré Park, the 250,000-square-foot Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science is divided into four distinct buildings: the Aquarium, the Frost Planetarium, and the North and West Wings. This unique campus-like setting takes guests on a journey from the ocean to the Everglades, and from the human cell to outer space. It investigates life as we know it while exploring the process of science and innovation.

Frost Science has been awarded LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Gold Certification for its outstanding practice in the design, construction and operation of a sustainable and energy-efficient facility. The museum completes a constellation of downtown cultural organizations in Miami’s Arts and Entertainment District, including the Pérez Art Museum Miami, the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts, YoungArts and more.
