Fresno Metropolitan Museum of Art and Science - Temporary Space/Reeves Family ASK Science Center

Temporary Space/Reeves Family ASK Science Center

During the museum’s renovation, programming and exhibitions were held in a temporary location. The museum’s Reeves ASK Science Center moved into donated space in the fall of 2005 and was open until July 2008.

The Reeves Family ASK Science Center was a hands-on science education space that features rotating exhibits. Following the renovation the center returned to its location inside the museum, on the 1st floor of the Fresno Bee Building.

    “... spinsterhood [is considered to be] an abnormality of small proportions and small consequence, something like an extra finger or two on the body, presumably of temporary duration, and never of any social significance.”
    —Mary Putnam Jacobi (1842–1906)

    “When my body leaves me
    I’m lonesome for it.
    but body
    goes away to I don’t know where
    and it’s lonesome to drift
    above the space it
    fills when it’s here.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    “Men sometimes have strange motives for the things they do.”
    —Michael Reeves (1945–1969)

    “The family circle has widened. The worldpool of information fathered by the electric media—movies, Telstar, flight—far surpasses any possible influence mom and dad can now bring to bear. Character no longer is shaped by only two earnest, fumbling experts. Now all the world’s a sage.”
    —Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)

    “Whilst Marx turned the Hegelian dialectic outwards, making it an instrument with which he could interpret the facts of history and so arrive at an objective science which insists on the translation of theory into action, Kierkegaard, on the other hand, turned the same instruments inwards, for the examination of his own soul or psychology, arriving at a subjective philosophy which involved him in the deepest pessimism and despair of action.”
    —Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)

    “Children can’t be a center of life and a reason for being. They can be a thousand things that are delightful, interesting, satisfying, but they can’t be a wellspring to live from. Or they shouldn’t be.”
    —Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
