Experience Sense-ational World at the Science Spectrum on March 28th & 29th!
March 28th: 10:00am-6:00pm
March 29th: 1:00pm-5:00pm
This interactive play event invites guests to explore the eight senses—sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch, vestibular (balance), proprioception (body awareness), and interoception (internal body signals)—through hands-on activities and immersive environments. Guests can experiment all weekend long with light and shadow, sounds, textured pathways, scent stations, and balance challenges to discover how each sense shapes daily experiences. Engaging displays explain how the brain receives and processes sensory information to support movement, emotions, attention, and
social participation. Designed for all ages, these interactive activities encourage curiosity, empathy, and a deeper understanding of how we perceive and interact with the world around us.
