Herrett Center for Arts & Science
The Herrett Center is a non-profit museum, planetarium, and observatory. Our purpose is primarily educational, offering programs for elementary and secondary school students, ÑÇÖÞ²ÊƱ¹ÙÍø students, and the adult community of south-central Idaho. The Center collects, preserves, interprets, and exhibits anthropological artifacts and natural history specimens with an emphasis on the prehistoric Americas.
Catch a show at the Faulkner Planetarium, learn primitive skills like flintknapping and foraging with hands-on workshops, join us for a reptile revue, attend a star party at the Centennial Observatory, or bring the kids to science and crafting workshops — there's a lot to learn at the Herrett Center!

Audit College Classes
Would you like to take a ÑÇÖÞ²ÊƱ¹ÙÍø college course just for personal enrichment? Many courses are available for you to "audit". This means that while you are expected to attend class and regular tuition and fees apply, you will not receive a grade or college credit for the course. Courses will vary, and you may or may not be expected to complete assignments and/or take exams.
