Upcoming Events
Scientists have always been fascinated by flight and have spent centuries creating solutions for launching stones, jets, and even humans into the air. From August 30 to September 1, step into the shoes of a physicist by exploring the forces of flight through fun, special activities like quadcopter demonstrations, exploring aerofoils, launching Pitsco rockets, and more!
Girl Scout Badge Day will run from 10 am to 4 pm for self-guided activities and workshops. All museum activities are open to the Girl Scouts and their families and are included with the museum admission (except workshops).
What floats and what sinks? Let’s find out together!
Perfect for children ages 5 and under, this playful hands-on STEM activity invites young explorers to test everyday objects in floating boats and observe what makes them sink. Inspired by the classic story Who Sank the Boat? by Pamela Allen, children and their grown-ups will giggle, guess, and investigate through water-based experiments that spark curiosity, build language, and encourage discovery.
Join us as we explore the amazing world of nature’s engineers at Homeschool Day: Wild Wonders! Discover how animals survive and thrive in their unique habitats. From the design of bird beaks to the power of camouflage, we’ll uncover the science behind their extraordinary abilities. Through hands-on activities and engaging learning labs, you’ll explore animal adaptations and the interesting ways different species interact with their environments.
Calling all future zoologists and explorers! Join us for the grand opening of our newest exhibit, STEM in the Wild. Explore a wild and wonderful world of zoology and biomimicry at the Science Mill in Johnson City.
