Science East

Submitted by Day Trips Canada on Wed, 08/12/2009 - 07:52

Science East is New Brunswick’s only science centre with over 100 hands-on exhibits. The Centre is located in the former York County Jail. This historic building has been preserved. The cells now house interactive exhibits, lectures, workshops and demos. Jail artifacts that present the histories of some of the more notorious inmates are located in the basement cells. Visitors can explore the only science playground in Atlantic Canada, featuring a climbing wall, and human gyroscope.   Visitors can interact with exotic insects, make patterns with a laser beam, or create a mini-tornado. 

Science East offers week long summer camps for kids aged 8-12, with themes like Forensic Science and Potions, Illusions and Mysteries.
