Treating invention as both history and a powerful force of the present, Hands On! master planned Inventure Place, the National Inventors Hall of Fame, to honor key individuals whose ingenuity produced the telephone, recorded sound, penicillin, and far more. Handsome exhibits bring personalities to life through images, stories, and artifacts assembled by Hands On!.

The interactive heart of Inventure Place is the Inventors Workshop—an open invitation to wonder, to challenge, and to discover. Transmit sound. Make magnets dance. Compose a song with lasers. Question. Try it. Hands On! designed workstations that can be re-invented, offering a practical opportunity for experimentation and renewal.
