Science on the Move is a travelling exhibition that is portable enough to bring the excitement of interactive science to remote and regional locations, science fairs and community celebrations yet suitable for larger venues as well.
Visitors enjoy a hands-on experience while discovering more about music and sound, human biology, light, force, motion, electricity, ecology, health and genetics. The bright banners and unique hanging exhibits featured in the design of Science on the Move are popular with both major science centres and regional galleries.
