The Scott Family Amazeum is a children’s museum in Bentonville, created to spark and nurture the curious and creative spirit. Since opening in 2015, the Amazeum has welcomed nearly 2.5 million visitors and hosted hundreds of thousands of students through field trips and Unfield Trips, where the teachers are provided resources to inspire learning before, during and after the visit.
It has partnered with thousands of educators to strengthen the learning ecosystem across Northwest Arkansas and serves as a regional hub for innovation and tinkering.
The Amazeum delivers hands-on STEAM experiences that connect play to real-world concepts in science, art, engineering and design. It continually updates programs to expand access and impact.
Named in honor of early founders Lee and Linda Scott, the museum was envisioned and founded by community leaders, including Jim Demaree, Ed Clifford and Roger Thomas.
