Offices for the
National Inventors Hall of Fame are located in the former museum building, however, the museum is closed while construction is underway to create a new magnet school, part of the Akron City Schools system. The hall of fame and museum's education staff administers the popular
Camp Invention program, a week-long, summer enrichment day program offered by Invent Now (the museum organization). Held in local communities for children in grades 1-6, campers participate daily in five themed programs, (literally) touching subjects of science, math, history, and the arts (and following educational standards). The campers' imaginations, creativity, and teamwork ability also get a workout. Camp Invention is pricier and more popular than the average day camp - and registrations fill up early.
