The Tech's Newest Exhibit
Come “find your why” in Innovations in Health Care, presented by El Camino Hospital. Our new exhibit highlights inventors who are improving — and even saving — lives around the world with creative uses of technology. Dive deep into the innovation process and engage in interactive activities that could inspire your next big idea!
A Community Resource for Innovation and Education
Thanks to unwavering support from staff, volunteers, donors and patrons, The Tech has grown to be far more than a museum. It is a valued community resource for education and innovation, one that in 2015 was awarded the National Medal for Museum and Library Service, the highest honor a United States museum can achieve.
