Located on Level 2, The Kemper and Ethel Marley Foundation Gallery

See what happens when you put your hands on science.

Humans are naturally curious and the science of observation helps us understand the natural world around us – how things work and why.

Bed of Nails
Lie down on a bed of nails. With more than 1,000 nails, each nail supports only a fraction of your weight so the nails won't hurt you.

Giant Lever
Learn how levers give us a mechanical advantage in this giant game of tug-of-war. It's not about how hard you pull the rope, but where.

Pulley Power
Go for a ride in one of our three pulley chairs.

Color Mixing

Experiment with a prism to split white light into its different wavelengths and combine them to form different colors.

Electromagnetic Workbench

Experience the invisible forces of electromagnetism as objects move before your very eyes.

Electric Circuits

Build your own circuit and explore the science behind basic electrical components, voltage, current, polarity and Ohm’s Law.
