Description

Celebrate the opening of The Science Discovery Museums’ new Nano mini-exhibition! Join us for hands-on educational programs about nanoscale science, engineering and technology. Explore how different forces – gravity, static electricity – cause materials to act differently when they’re nanometer-sized. Nano was created by the Nanoscale Informal Science Education Network (NISE Network) with support from the National Science Foundation. Sponsored by Genzyme. Drop-in 11:00am-12pm and 2:30pm-4:30pm All programs are free with admission unless stated otherwise. Admission is $11 adults & children, $10 seniors 60+, free for children under 1 and Members.
