Thanks to the incredible support of community leaders, partners, donors, board members, and staff, we were thrilled to break ground at Brillante Early Learning Center earlier this week!
As New Mexico’s first museum-based STEAM early childhood education center, Brillante will offer a hands-on learning experience and care for children while providing real-world training for our future Early Childhood educators.
We’re excited to help build brighter futures for children, families, and our community!

We were thrilled to join so many amazing organizations at the inaugural NM Disability Employment Awareness Month Conference earlier this month! A heartfelt thank you to the wonderful team at the NM Commission for the Blind for recognizing Explora as an Outstanding Nonprofit Employer!
Join us on Saturday, November 9, from 9:00 to 10:00 AM for a special time designed for guests who appreciate a quieter, less stimulating environment. Sensory Friendly tickets will be available for advance reservation. We’ll provide sensory kits (including noise-canceling headphones, fidget tools, timers, social stories, and more), reduce noise and light (with some exhibits temporarily turned off), and offer additional calming spaces for sensory breaks. This is an ideal experience for neurodivergent visitors, newborns, and anyone looking for a more tranquil STEAM-focused museum visit!
