The Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI)
engages over a million children and families each year with highly
interactive science learning experiences. Our programs help students
sharpen their critical thinking abilities by teaching them how to observe,
collect evidence, and draw conclusions. Whether it is at our museum in
Portland or at schools, camps, and fairs across Oregon and the Pacific
Northwest, we exist to spark curiosity and foster problem-solving skills.
Generous contributors like you help OMSI shape the next generation of
thinkers and doers in the essential areas of science, technology, engineering,
and mathematics.
OMSI OUTDOORS
OMSI has operated outdoor science education programs across the state, making a
lasting impact in the lives of over 100,000 children and families for more than 60 years.
Students who have real world opportunities to explore science, technology, engineering
and mathematics concepts are more likely to succeed in their life regardless of their
career choice. Hands-on outdoor learning in a social setting has been proven to advance
cognitive skill development, develop an affinity for long-term environmental stewardship,
and increase civic participation.
We currently operate camps throughout Oregon’s diverse ecosystems, from Hancock
Field Station in the high desert, which we own, to facilities we lease in lush forests and
mountain ranges, and along the stunning Oregon coast. Now, as the result of visionary
gifts from John Gray and Investors XII we have the opportunity to develop a permanent
new home for OMSI’s marine science education programs on a unique 20-acre coastal
property in Newport, Oregon.
OMSI receives no outdoor school funds through the public schools. Instead, our
programs are supported by generous foundations, families, corporations, and individuals
like you. With your support of the OMSI Coastal Discovery Center, we can honor John
Gray’s legacy and meet the growing community need for outdoor science education
programs.
The need in Oregon for additional outdoor education opportunities is great. Many children in
Oregon—especially those in rural settings or with limited resources—lack opportunities to
learn science subjects in school and in the natural environment. Over 40 percent of Oregon’s
1,300 schools are designated Title 1 schools (with 40 percent of a school’s population
eligible for free and/or reduced lunch). OMSI will provide scholarships to children and
school groups throughout Oregon to participate in outdoor science learning at the Coastal
Discovery Center.

OMSI COASTAL DISCOVERY CENTER: VISION
Our vision is to create a 20-acre science camp and living laboratory with indoor teaching
spaces, a dining hall/convening space, and lodging for up to 150 children and families.
Programming will include year-round residential camps for children and families taught
by professional educators in the rich learning environment of Oregon’s Central Coast.
From dune ecology and ocean observation to exploration of wave energy generation
technologies and the sustainable fishing industry, the Coastal Discovery Center
will augment and support both the Central Coast’s marine education and economic
development strategies. The facility will serve over 5,000 people per year.
To build upon this unparalleled environment for marine science learning, we are reaching
out beyond the Coastal Discovery Center and into the Central Coast community. We
are joining a network of educational organizations, scientists, port operators, wind
engineers, commercial fisherman, and other key industry leaders to provide diverse
science and technology learning opportunities to children and families.
OMSI COASTAL DISCOVERY CENTERS PROJECT GOALS
• Prepare students to participate in science and technology-based industries,
building a pipeline of innovative workers for Oregon.
•Expand the reach of our existing marine science education programs and provide convening space, serving over 5,000 people per year and 90,000 Oregonians over the next 20 years.
•Provide scholarships to children and school groups to participate in outdoor
science learning.
•Complement flourishing marine sciences and ocean observation economic development strategies in the state.
•Honor the legacy of John Gray, a visionary leader for the State of Oregon.
•Save $50,000 annually by consolidating current marine sciences programming into a single, cost-efficient location with additional income opportunities through space rentals.
JOIN US
We invite you to be a part of OMSI’s $10 million campaign to shape science
education and Oregon’s future through the Coastal Discovery Center.
John Gray and Investors XII contributed the first $2.3 million to the campaign,
and many have since joined them.
With your support, we will create a legacy for Oregon for years to come.
Science learning helps our children expand their
awareness of career options. Natural resource-related
industries account for 33 percent of all jobs in Oregon
and comprise 37 percent of our economy. The clean
technology sector is expected to add 1.1 million jobs along
the West Coast by 2020. Oregon’s future depends on
innovative workers equipped with science and technology
skills, and the OMSI Coastal Discovery Center will inspire
students and prepare future leaders for careers in the
scientific industries over the next 20 years.
