There’s always something new to discover at Frost
Science, Miami’s only planetarium, aquarium and science
museum! The museum educates millions on South
Florida’s diverse coastal habitats each year. Volunteers
can take part in safe environmental conservation through
Museum Volunteers for the Environment (MUVE),
a volunteer-based habitat restoration project dedicated to
restoring coastal environments that once thrived in Miami.
