Adults
MMA’s programs and workshops for adult are designed to help you cultivate your lifelong passion for star-gazing, expand an emerging interest in bird-watching, or satisfy your curiosity about invasive vs. native plants. Tours with MMA’s natural scientists will have you scrambling over the moors to learn about the geology of Nantucket or touring the Mitchell House while it’s ‘asleep’ to understand the workings of an historic house. Lectures on MMA’s research programs – from scallops, to extra-solar planets, to the ‘daring daughters’ of Nantucket – add to your knowledge about the island and arm you with great information to charm and entertain your house guests. Sign up for an exciting learning opportunity with the MMA team (Click here for Program guide).
MMA’s research activities also provide unique educational opportunities for adults when they join MMA’s scientists in the field, on the water, or at the observatory. Check out the research activities in the fields of natural science, astronomy, and marine sceince to see if you’d like to join the team and participate directly in our first-class scientific research studies.
