Put your investigation skills to the test and learn how DNA can help solve crimes!
About this Event

Do you have the skills to be a real life forensic detective? Join us to learn how to analyze the small, and often microscopic particles left behind at crime scenes called trace evidence. First, investigate a “crime scene” to find possible evidence and put your lab skills to the test! Can you solve the case before the clock strikes 12?

Participants will:

  • identify and evaluate evidence left at a “crime scene”;
  • process and analyze fingerprints & trace evidence; and
  • explore how DNA can be used to help solve crimes.

Ages 10-13, one adult chaperone required. Chaperones must purchase a ticket and fully participate in all program activities.
