Interactive exhibits in the How Do You See the World?® experience explore the world through a lens of hope, progress, and generosity.

• Christian Science and Mary Baker Eddy (free): Learn about the remarkable life of Mary Baker Eddy (1821-1910), who discovered and founded Christian Science and its global church.

• Visiting with children? The How Do You See the World?® experience offers an Explorer’s Activity Book just for kids. You can also request the Big Blue Earth® program, a shorter, three-minute light and sound presentation in the Mapparium® globe.

Admission to the Mapparium® globe for kids under 18 is free. General admission is $6. All other exhibits are free. Please note that we will be closed Easter Sunday, April 20, and Patriots’ Day, April 21.
