About this event

Event lasts 5 hours

Join our volunteers, scientists and researchers from across the STEM subjects as they dive into the world of theatre and film. Explore how to create amazing special effects, develop photographic film and create your own holographic illusion.

Discover how science and art collide in this fun and interactive day and how we wouldn’t be able to enjoy our theatre, tv shows or films without those working in STEM.

Family Fun Days are designed for children aged 6–12, but older and younger siblings also very welcome. All 12 year olds and under must be accompanied by an adult and those aged 4 and above need a ticket to attend.
