Have you checked out our new traveling exhibit in the Environmental Science building? From now until July 29th, as a part of Summer Adventure, come and experience the very nostalgic and hands-on exhibit called "How People Make Things". The exhibit is inspired by Mr. Rogers factory tours. Throughout the exhibit, you will learn how things are Cut, Molded, and Assembled with a variety of hands-on activities. As you are walking through, you will also be able to watch old Mr. Rogers factory tour episodes.

Some of the hands-on exhibits that you will be be able to participate in is cutting out your own dinosaur shapes out of construction paper using a die-cut machine, seeing a real plastic injection molder at work, and deforming a penny into a flat, bumpy version of itself. As an extension of the "How People Make Things" exhibit is a maker space area, sponsored by Ryobi, where visitors can participate in a variety of hands-on crafts that will keep your little ones engaged!

We hope that you will come visit many times now through July 29th to experience everything that the traveling exhibit has to offer and more!
