Sometimes science needs to be precise- but what’s wrong with a little mess along the way? Join us for a messy month filled with slime, mud and an ooey-gooey good time!
- Exhibits, Shows and Demos: Slide into MODS’ Makerspace Science Lab to create your own mud mix and discover its contents under a microscope. Play with all types of slime and find out what makes them stretch, stick and splatter!
- Animal Encounters: Meet our resident animals and our visitor at the Survival of the Slowest traveling exhibit. Then, learn what MODS’ Life Sciences team does when they make a mess!
- Watch an IMAX on the GIANT Screen: Animal Kingdom, Blue Whales, T. Rex and more!
- Career Connections: Channel your inner chemist to create sticky concoctions and discover how animal handlers safely deal with animal droppings.
Just for early learners (ages 0-6): Young scientists will encounter a peculiar substance that is both a liquid and solid, get hands-on with real peat from the Everglades and feel the difference between various types of slime.
Cost: Included with Museum admission.
