The Bradbury Science Museum Association (BSMA) Board, guests and community members celebrated the official opening of the Gadget Museum Store Kiosk inside the Bradbury Science Museum Thursday in downtown Los Alamos.

The BSMA Board includes President Andre Trottier, Vice President Ryn Herrmann, Secretary KayLinda Crawford, Treasurer Ann E. Parsons and members Ed Fenimore, Heidi Hahn, Carol A. Clark, Shannon Cde Baca, Kathleen Boerigter, Judy McKenzie and Johnnie Martinez.

The BSMA is seeking volunteers to work in the new museum gift shop. Volunteers are needed to serve two-hour shifts as points of contact for visitors wishing to purchase gift items.

The BSMA vision is to support the Bradbury Science Museum’s educational mission as its official nonprofit partner, operating under the IRC 501(c) 3 as a tax exempt organization. The BSMA promotes Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematic (STEM) learning and scientific literacy for people of all ages through workshops, field trips, special events and support for museum and community educators.

The BSMA offers memberships for individuals, families and businesses. Each membership includes access to hundreds of out-of-region museums across the country. Of course, tax-deductible donations of all sizes are happily accepted to help the BSMA ramp up its work under its IRS 501(c)(3) nonprofit status.
