About the Wallis Annenberg Building at the California Science Center

The Wallis Annenberg Building exhibits contemporary elegance highlighted by an open ceiling that reveals the myriad of colors given off by a fading sunset that transforms a beautiful summer day into a relaxing summer night — complete with a magnificent and splendid view of the stars. Mingle or sit alongside a bamboo garden with a pond teeming with beautiful lilies while overlooking a warmly lit fountain and shimmering wall. The subtle lighting, warm atmosphere, and spectacular sky view makes the most of what a summer night has to offer in beautiful Southern California.
