The Denver Museum of Nature & Science is the Rocky Mountain region’s leading resource for informal science education. As an education-based organization, we believe in the importance of open exchange and learning. In order to maintain a family friendly and respectful environment, we do moderate comments made on our social media networks. While most comments will remain posted if they are on-topic

and not abusive, moderating decisions are subjective. We are dedicated to providing our visitors with a quality experience – whether it be online or at the Museum. We will address all constructive criticisms quickly and efficiently as long as they are not abusive, offensive, inappropriate, profane (including expletives and letters followed by dashes) or illegal.
