Join us for a hands-on workshop and lively conversation exploring the world of slime. You’ll discover how slime connects medicine, biology and pop culture – from the organisms that rely on it, to the ways humans harness its unique properties.
Get to know some of the slimy creatures that share our planet, learn about the science behind their ooze, and create your own slime to take home.
If you want a break from the activities, you can head to our Chill-Out Room to lie down or relax. There will be low lighting, comfortable seating, cushions, mats, ear defenders, earplugs and sensory toys.
