Exhibit The "New" Science Garage

The Science Garage is open!

The new widely expanded and improved activity space provides hands-on design engineering activities. The new Science Garage will help facilitate some amazing skill building for all of our guests from young to old.

• A new workshop with more tools, more materials and more equipment for you to learn new skills on. Think scroll saws, hand drills, palm routers, sanders and more!
  
• All the latest in Maker Tech! A new state of the art Laser cutter, a large format 3D printer, along with laptops, tablets and other gadgets for tinkering with computational thinking.
  
• A new super high Drop-Zone to add a dynamic way to test your creations! A new horizontal wind turbine testing station will intensify the testing conditions!
  
• Some of your favourites are getting a design upgrade including the Magnetic Marble Wall, the Vertical Wind Tunnels and the Rolling Racer Ramp.
  
• You will get to build larger than life structures using our new Rigamajig building set.
  
• A brand new Ames Room exhibit will play tricks on your brain with science and illusion!
