How does it work?
Each month, a new topic is discovered throughout the day. Using the month's schedule, you can choose what learning opportunities you would like to be a part of. There are still regular guided tours available at the bottom of each hour, as usual, with the last one of the day beginning at 3:30p.m.
Do I need to preregister?
Yes. Super Science Saturday is a pre-registration event. Day-of registrations & walk-ins are not accepted due to preparation and staffing needs. If you would like to register for our upcoming event, please click the link at the bottom of the page.
Do I Have to Stay All Day?
You can decide to come any time, pack a lunch and stay all day, or for only the parts you want to be involved in.
What is the cost?
Each Super Science Saturday is considered one of our Special Events, and the admission price is $15 per person for the whole day. This includes all learning activities, special guests, and our regularly scheduled tours. If you are a member, you receive a discounted price of $10.
