Stories of Science: Party in the Lab

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!
We are going to be partying in the lab every Saturday this June, in celebration of our Curious Histories Fest (June 14th)!
Our fun, interactive activities are designed for science lovers of all ages. 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.
Break out your party clothes and join us to learn all about the fascinating history of high-tech textiles! Stop by our handling collection table to get some hands-on experience with objects from our collection or join us for a drop-in “highlights” tour at 11:30am. You can also join us for our themed “drop-in” tour at 2pm.
Stories of Science takes place weekly on Saturdays. Admission is free and reservations are not required.
