Application open for 2026 Discovery Museum Scholarship program
Acton, MA – Discovery Museum announced today the 2026 Discovery Museum Scholarship program, which began in 2022 in celebration of the 40th anniversary of the founding of the Museum. The program will award four one-time $1,500 scholarships to high school seniors in Massachusetts who embody the mission and values of the Museum.
“More than 6 million kids and their families have come through our doors over the past four decades to learn about themselves, their abilities, and the world around them, guided by their own creativity and natural curiosity,” said CEO Marie Beam. “The Discovery Museum Scholarship looks to celebrate young learners who embody the mission and values of the Museum by supporting them on next leg of their educational journeys—whatever that might be.”
All high school seniors residing in Massachusetts are eligible to apply. For one of the four awards, preference will be given to current or past employees or volunteers of the Museum. Award money can be used for any educational or developmental experience.
Video or written applications are being accepted at https://bit.ly/DMScholarship2026 (applicants must log in to Google to apply) and must be received by March 15, 2026. Recipients will be notified in May.
