Land Acknowledgment

Pacific Science Center acknowledges that we live, work, and play on the traditional territories of the Duwamish and Coast Salish Peoples and that we occupy this land. This acknowledgment does not take the place of authentic relationships with Indigenous communities but serves as a first step in honoring the land we occupy.

Commitment to Anti-Racism

Pacific Science Center stands with those who are courageously fighting against hate, racism, and injustice. We recognize that not being racist is not sufficient. We must be actively anti-racist, and we commit to doing so. We prioritize inclusion, diversity, equity, and access in everything we do. Curiosity and critical thinking are essential to the dialogue and changes that need to happen.
