Our Goal is to provide a place in Central Ohio for the teachers, parents, and general public to find educational materials, toys, games, and other items, to enhance learning about and spread an appreciation of this Wonderful Universe we all live in.

Proceeds from the Gift Shop go to expanding our library collection, providing new materials for public programs, and improving our exhibits. We do this all in order to make your visit to Perkins more exciting and enjoyable.
