Explore Northeast Ohio's Creation Education Museum
What Formed the Grand Canyon?
Fossils you can hold, a canyon you can read, and a sandbox that floods on command. Ohio's creation science museum, made for curious kids and families of all ages.
Why we exist
The Creation Education Museum sets the competing models of origins and geological history next to each other, shows you the same evidence both are working from, and trusts you to weigh it.
Walk the museum floor and you'll find real fossils you can hold, a cross-section of canyon strata you can read layer by layer, and honest questions posted right on the wall: Can life come from nonliving material? Are dating methods reliable? Did dinosaurs and humans coexist?
You should know where we stand, so here it is. God created the universe. His word is a reliable record of what happened, and the evidence keeps agreeing with it. You won't get an argument from us, and nobody here is going to make you feel foolish for what you were taught. We'd rather let the evidence speak.

The fossils and the rock layers are right here for you to examine. The evidence you'd need a laboratory to see for yourself, like the code written inside your own cells, is published where you can read it, and we'll walk you through it. You'll see why we think it fits the account of history God has given us. Whatever you were taught in a classroom or heard in a documentary, those aren't the only voices worth listening to.
Maybe you're a pastor, a church leader, or a teacher in a classroom, and you'd like to take your audience through the origins question fairly. We can bring the structure for that, the resources to answer it, and the expertise to help with the details and the questions. That is the gap we are here to stand in, and we'd love to have you visit us, or let us come to you.
Creation was God's first testimony about Himself, and it was never meant to stop at rocks and bones. It points to Jesus Christ, who made this world and then stepped into it to rescue the people in it, you included. Build your life on that footing and it will hold when the storms come, as they do for everybody.
If you are carrying grief, or fear, or the quiet suspicion that you don't much matter, chance has no comfort to offer you. Scripture says you were made “fearfully and wonderfully” (Psalm 139:14) by a God who sustains you, protects you, saves you, and guides you. There is real hope in that, and it is worth your honest look before you settle the question.
What visitors say
I had a guided tour today and it was excellent! The exhibits were thought provoking and well detailed. I can’t wait to go back with friends and my kids!
Great museum with lots of really nice fossils and displays. The outdoor play area is large and great for families.
A nice gem in the Akron, Oh area! The museum is informative and there is even an outdoor area for the young kids to explore!
