Explore More Life is a one-of-a-kind environment where visitors can engage in real-world life science. Lab programming will be supported by partnerships with educational institutions, businesses and individuals.

Imagine the thrill of being able to perform your own experiments!

Visitors to the lab will engage in authentic, dynamic activities that provide opportunities to explore big ideas through inquiry. Activities are fun for all ages and skill level.

Lab activities are constantly evolving and may include the chance to observe and identify plankton and experiment with materials to understand principles of buoyancy. Experience aquatic life in novel ways and the wonder of adaptation.

Design and conduct experiments to explore aspects of termite behavior. Learn more about the natural world and the potential for unforeseen consequences of manmade products.
