Stories of Science: Earth Month
Join us in our museum EVERY SATURDAY for a family-friendly program that highlights the many strange and surprising stories from the history of science!
Our fun, interactive activities are designed for science lovers of all ages. Take an up-close look at interesting items in our handling collection. Stop by our Object Explorer touch table to learn about the science behind everyday items like ice cube trays and LED light bulbs. Chat with our experienced Gallery Guides to find out more about the people responsible for the science embedded in our daily lives.
This week, we’ll be celebrating Earth Month with a special “highlights tour” at 11:30am and 2pm about the history and environmental impact of the textile industry. And be sure to stop by our handling table for some special objects from our handling collection on eco-friendly natural dyes!
Stories of Science takes place weekly on Saturdays. Admission is free and reservations are not required.
