Talewise presents, “Science Heroes Break the Ice!” (Sat., Dec. 16 @ 1:00 PM) (330 Park Ave., Multipurpose Room)

Science and stories collide in this interactive S.T.E.M. program featuring the ‘coolest’ thing in science — DRY ICE! Join us on an adventure about Professor Noble and the Science Heroes, who try to thwart an icy-hearted villain from freezing the entire planet! The audience helps the performer act out the tale as we use the events in the story to discover and explore dry ice and the changing states of matter. Volunteers help conduct each experiment as the whole audience gets involved in changing variables and making predictions! We’ll even bring some of the dry ice experiments out into the crowd for everyone to experience! Best for ages 5-12, but fun for the whole family! Registration is recommended. Read more >

She uses fresh, all natural henna cones and provides after-care instructions for all. She will be with us for two afternoons (Dec. 27 3-5 PM & Dec. 27 4-6 PM). No registration necessary, though it will be first-come, first served, so expect that you may need to wait for your turn. Read more >
