Welcome to the new Digital Collection!
We are excited to bring you the official launch of the Griffin Museum of Science and Industry's new digital Collection. This initiative offers unprecedented access to our artifacts from anywhere in the world. Over the past 90 years, we have assembled a remarkable collection of artifacts in categories such as transportation, communications, science and technology and many more. Our Collection launches with over 1,000 artifacts, many of which feature detailed narratives that explain their significance and provide a deeper understanding of their historical context.
We invite you to explore these artifacts and engage with the rich history of discovery and innovation they represent. As part of our ongoing commitment to accessibility and education, the online collection will continue to grow over time, with new artifacts, curated sets and stories added regularly. Below, you will find a selection of some of our most iconic artifacts to get you started on your journey. We look forward to sharing our legacy of scientific and industrial achievement with you, and we are excited for you to experience this expanding resource.

NGSS standards
Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) promote deep science understanding through three-dimensional learning, integrating core ideas, science practices, and crosscutting concepts. They encourage inquiry-based exploration of real-world phenomena while fostering critical thinking, problem-solving, and interdisciplinary connections across grade levels.
Griffin Museum of Science and Industry offers NGSS-aligned programming to support educators in the classroom. For more information, visit our Education page.
