We bring the wonders of the Discovery Center to your school!
Bring the excitement of the Don Harrington Discovery Center directly to your school with our ‘On-Your-Campus’ programs!
Our educators will come to you, equipped with all the necessary materials for engaging and educational activities. Tailored to enrich your students’ learning experience, these programs provide a convenient and interactive way to explore science and nature without leaving your campus.
On-Your-Campus Science LIVE! Demos
Spectacular, interactive science demonstrations featuring engaging science experiments!
- On-campus programs are available for any audience size — from a single class to an entire campus.
- Instructional content and demonstrations vary with the grade level of the audience.
All shows (excluding Critters Live!) require 30-45 minutes to set up prior to show time, and 20-30 minutes to take down after your show concludes. Please reserve your show space accordingly. For the best show experience, students should not be present while setup takes place (drawing the curtains on stages in the cafeteria/auditoriums works if we need to set up while lunchtime finishes!)
