FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LOUISVILLE, KY, OCTOBER 1, 2024 – Kentucky Science Center is excited to announce a new partnership with Buffalo Construction, Inc. to completely redesign and renovate the popular ‘Who Forted!?’ exhibit. The revamped exhibit is scheduled to open later this Fall, promising an enhanced and immersive experience for visitors of all ages.

Who Forted has long been a favorite among families and children, offering an engaging space where creativity and engineering come together as visitors build and explore their own fort structures. With the support of Buffalo Construction, the exhibit will be transformed into a more dynamic and interactive environment, featuring new materials, state-of-the-art design elements, and expanded learning opportunities.

"Our goal is to inspire a love of science and exploration in our community," said Mike Norman, Executive Director & CEO of Kentucky Science Center. "The collaboration with Buffalo Construction allows us to take the Who Forted exhibit to new heights, providing a more hands-on, minds-on experience that encourages problem-solving, teamwork, and innovation."

Buffalo Construction, a leading commercial construction company based in Louisville, brings a wealth of expertise and a commitment to community-focused projects. We are thrilled to partner with the Kentucky Science Center on this exciting project," said Sierra Baumle, Marketing Director at Buffalo Construction. "This is not only a fantastic opportunity to share our passion for construction, but also allows us to invest in the future of our community and inspire the next generation of builders, engineers, and innovators. We’re proud to support an initiative that promotes creativity, discovery, and engagement right here in Louisville."

Kentucky Science Center invites the public to stay tuned for updates on the grand reopening of the ‘Who Forted!?’ exhibit later this year. A special launch will be held to celebrate the unveiling, with opportunities for families, educators, and community members to explore the new space and participate in hands-on activities.

Kentucky Science Center is located at 727 W. Main Street on Louisville’s historic Museum Row and is open to the public seven days a week from 9:30AM to 5:00PM.
