Get ready for an epic light adventure this May at Scienceworks! Illuminate is a brand NEW exhibition exploring the science behind the fastest traveller in the universe – light. Ignite the senses and learn through hands-on interactive play. What is light, what can we do with it and how do we see?

In this vibrant festival-themed exhibition, visitors will explore visual perception and illumination through colour, sound and action. They will learn how light behaves, where it comes from, how it reflects and refracts and what tools we’ve invented to harness it.

Kids can choose their own adventure and experiment together with colours, shadows, mirrors, lenses, lasers and more. And use their whole body to activate exhibits and see themselves and the world around them in a different light. Our review here.
