Illusions – A Mind Boggling Exhibition
Illusions are created in the chasm between what we perceive as real and what IS real. This chasm can be surprising, intriguing, even enjoyable. In “Illusions”, you’ll experience dozens of illusions that prove that trusting your senses isn’t always the best course of action.
Levers of Discovery
Pull up your sleeves and get to work! Two exhibitions provide fun learning opportunities and activities for all members of the family. In “Levers of Discovery” you will find how simple tools and machines help us to exert more force than we might be capable of producing on our own. In “Building in the Sand”, you’ll find that you have what it takes to be an engineer and a builder.
Electricity – The Power & The Light

So indispensable, in fact, that we cannot envision modern life without it. We invite you to delve into the fascinating world hiding behind every plug and socket!
