$1 – $3The L.C.Bates Museum is hosting a morning of chemistry experiments to celebrate National Chemistry Week. National Chemistry Week in 2019 is focused on Marvelous Metals and engaging chemical experiments. Colby College Chemistry students will be at the museum to guide us in some incredible chemistry experiments. Do you want to build a battery to see how it works? Do you want to see what happens to an object in a vacuum? Would you like to use chemistry to make a colorful dye? Or, would you like to do an experiment that studies water? These fun chemistry activities and more will be conducted using hands-on science activities, generously provided by American Chemical Society. The program will introduce the amazing world of chemistry to young visitors and delight older participants.
Admission: $3 for adults, $1 for children.
