New exhibit, new activities...something new to do every day!

Nano at Noon

Learn all about the stuff too small to see each day during Nano at Noon! Build molecules, watch surprising demonstrations and participate in fun activities such as Liquid Metals and Exploring Solutions!

Science Station

What’s the science behind it? Experience it hands-on with mind-blowing experiments and activities. 

My Home, Planet Earth

Green is good! Kids learn how they can make the world a better place by taking a journey with Riff and Rosie, two delightful squirrels on a mission to trace the source of pollution in their town, Bright Water Corners. Along with their beaver-scientist friend, Castor Slaptail, use science as a tool for investigating the environment!

Characters Riff and Rosie will make appearances all summer! Check the web calendar of events for times. Learn more about this environmental health exhibit.
