Science Museum Oklahoma is pleased to announce it has received a $15,000 grant from the Carolyn Watson Rural Oklahoma Community Foundation through its Community Grant program.

“We were absolutely thrilled to receive this grant,” says Sherry Marshall, president and CEO of Science Museum Oklahoma. “Thanks to the Carolyn Watson Rural Oklahoma Community Foundation, we were able to serve the Checotah and Westville communities through educational, hands-on science programming at their respective public libraries. This is our second year of this grant and we’re delighted to continue this important work. Because of the Foundation, STEM education will be more accessible and convenient to the citizens of both communities.
