*Sold Out*SUMMER! SUN! SOLSTICE!
Join TELUS Spark for National Indigenous People's Day on June 21 from 9:00 AM - 7:00 PM for a FREE day of science fun for everyone! ☀️
Wander the outdoor Brainasium to visit Tessa Wolfleg as she extends her knowledge of native plants, talk to Walter White Bear to gain an understanding of the Circle of Life - sometimes known as the Medicine Wheel, and witness the wonders of chemistry at the Where We Gather fire pit. These sessions are safe spaces where everyone is free to explore questions, stories, teachings, and misunderstandings of Indigenous music, singing, stories and symbolism.
Inside the science centre, learn the traditional Métis Red River Jig, watch the live Infinity Dome show, "Solstice, Seasons & Stargazing with our Ancestors," and try the featured Decadent Bannock Bites from the Spark Eatery. Don't miss the mini market featuring local Indigenous sellers such as, Burliest Bear Art, Pepper Pottery, Blackfoot Crossing, Grandpas Honey Farm, and the Ancestral Science Podcast.
Plus, check out the Creative Kids Museum to be a part of Wrapped with Love: Moss Bag Teachings with Jessie Fiddler-Kiss, a hands-on talk about the Moss Bag Project. Let your little ones feel the materials and wrap up their own favourite stuffy in a mini size moss bag, learn how to wrap a baby in a real moss bag, or get snug and cozy inside a larger-than life adult-sized moss bag!
