In 1949, The Junior League of Miami's "Project Finding Committee" determined that Dade County's children needed a science museum. The Junior Museum of Miami, a private non-profit organization, was established in 1950 in a house on the corner of Biscayne Boulevard and 26th Street. The Junior Museum expanded so quickly that in 1952 it was forced to move to the Miami Women's Club building on Bayshore Drive. It was then christened the Museum of Science and Natural History.

Throughout MiaSci, a changing panorama of exhibitions will provide memorable experiences, as visitors of all ages select from a wide array of intriguing themes. MiaSci's collections will reflect the rich natural history of South Florida, its unique subtropical environment and the cultural heritage of the peoples of Miami. An affiliate of The Smithsonian Institution, MiaSci is committed to maintaining high standards of scholarship and collections care. The Traveling Exhibition Gallery will host significant international exhibitions, bringing the best worldwide to Miami.
