Though the museum will be free, registration is encouraged, as the events often sell out. Register here.

Numerous activities are planned at Mi-Sci during the fest, including:

  • Rainbow Paper project - Iridescence is abundant in nature and exemplifies its beauty. Guests will create their own iridescent piece and add it to a community art project, mimicking the feathers or scales of animals in the wild. 
  • Lava Lamps - Guests will explore the dangers of ocean acidification in this activity where pH will determine the color of a Lava Lamp.
  • Cartesian Divers - Rising sea levels affect pressure underwater and how sea life can survive in their environment as will be demonstrated in this Cartesian Divers activity.
  • Rainbow Rice sensory bin - To celebrate Concert of Colors, early learners will enjoy this neon sensory bin to explore the world of touch and light.
  • Build the Change - Put your imagination skills to the test in this LEGO brick building challenge focused on finding sustainable solutions to environmental issues. 
  • Greening of Detroit: "Let's Build Tree Equity Together" – Only on July 21st - The Greening of Detroit station will include an interactive project where participants can create their own leaves to add to Detroit's Tree Canopy.
