Fort Lauderdale Museums
With The Family
Visit a few Fort Lauderdale museums if you are a
history buff, wondering about science or just
want to see something beautiful.
Step inside one of the Greater Fort Lauderdale museums and learn something new while having fun at the same time.
Imagine being inside a rocket ready to blast into space. Dabble on some watercolor paints and create the next refrigerator masterpiece.
Step back into time and hear stories of pioneer life along the New River. Maybe spent a part of the afternoon contemplating an art print or some sculpture.
