Whats On

Our new magical family show is out on the road this summer, visiting libraries across the county. With a range of interactive demos, puzzles and lots of audience participation, explore the science behind some of our favourite magic tricks. There will be the mysterious diving ketchup, colour-changing liquids, disappearing water, and some very mysterious eggs. Come along for an entertaining and intriguing hour of science sorcery.

With thanks to Blackwell’s and to Oxford University Press, who will be donating a Winnie the Witch book of postcards to every library taking part.

The shows are free to attend; book directly via the libraries.
