I visited The Leonardo Museum in Salt Lake City recently, and overall I’d say it was okay. There were definitely some interesting parts, and I appreciated the museum’s focus on the intersection of science, art, and technology, but it didn’t quite live up to the expectations I had going in.

Some of the interactive exhibits were cool, especially if you’re going with kids. There were hands-on displays and rotating exhibits that offered something different than your typical museum. I liked that they tried to blend creativity and innovation, but a few of the exhibits felt a little dated or not as engaging as they could have been.

The space itself is modern and well-located, and I thought the staff were friendly and helpful. It’s right downtown, so it’s easy to pair with other attractions in the area. I also liked that it’s family-friendly and not too expensive, which makes it a good option if you’re looking for something low-key to do.

That said, I don’t know that I’d go out of my way to return unless there was a specific new exhibit I really wanted to see. It’s a decent place to spend an hour or two, but it didn’t leave a big impression. If you’re into science museums or art installations, you might enjoy it more, but for me, it was just okay.

Went in a school field trip and the kids had so much fun. They gave every child these lanyards and adults to so that when the kids got done with certain sections they passed them off. It was a blast. We could've spent the whole day there. What am I saying we were there for 3 hours or a little longer. My group was the best. So intuitive and asked so many questions it was great. Love to see how little minds learn and grow.. Not just saying that cause my son was in the group but it was OUTSTANDING.. Its right next to the Salt Lake City Library, didn't even know it was there, will definitely go back again!!!

Fun interactive museum for families. My 10, 15 and even 17 year old enjoyed our visit here. Favorite exhibits were the flight simulator and art room. Our visit lasted about 2 hours. Not as big as a museum as others nearby (Discovery Gateway, Natural History Museum of Utah, Curiosity of Museum etc). Curious how often they change up the exhibits. Visited on a weekday afternoon and it wasn’t busy. Finding parking was a bit tricky (as it often can be downtown) but we ended up parking in the underground parking by the nearby library.
