HAGERSTOWN -- After 14 years and 33 stops at science museums across the United States, the National Eye Institute's VISION traveling exhibit is at its final destination -- Discovery Station at Hagerstown.
"It's a real coup for us," B. Marie Byers, community leader and president of Discovery Station at Washington Street and Summit Avenue in Hagerstown, said recently.
The exhibit has been on display in Hagerstown for the past 16 months. The National Eye Institute (NEI) now has made VISION a permanent part of the interactive museum's collection.
"We are honored to have VISION as part of our permanent collection," Byers said. "Thanks to this donation, we can continue to offer our visitors pertinent, engaging and enjoyable information about the science of vision."
