JAM Sessions: Winter Mad Science

$5 General Admission
FREE for Members

Members will receive their discount by opting to sign in with their membership account during the checkout process and using their membership discount code.

To start off the new year at the MAP, we have a series of winter weather science experiments to get our hands onto.  Winter brings snow and ice, and each of these experiments has something to do with the nature of this substance.  If you've been to a Halloween Mad Science JAM with us before, the format of this activity will be familiar.  There will be four separate stations, each with their own winter-related experiment, to explore.  Each of these four experiments will show you some cool (pun intended) scientific properties of ice, including what makes snow have different textures, why salt melts ice, and what makes ice sticky!

Class is at 10:15 am


PLEASE NOTE:

  • We require a 24 hour cancellation notice for Little Explorers Club and JAM Sessions reservations via emailing info@visitthemap.org. Please include the name on the reservation, number of students, date and time of the class.
