Human Plus Celebration

June 29, 2018 @ 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM

Human +

We’re celebrating our newest temporary exhibition: Human Plus: Real Lives + Real Engineering with two days of engineering human potential!

Human Plus offers guests of all ages the chance to explore and create a range of low- and high-tech tools that restore and extend human abilities, from neuro-prosthetic limbs controlled by thoughts to a touch panel that allows you to feel music.

On June 29th and 30th visit between 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. to see the exhibit AND do even more science with our educators and area experts!

  • Practice your micropipetting skills
  • Design your own wheelchair enhancement, whether it’s a bag or device
  • Explore a variety of human tools to compare their effectiveness
  • Engineer your own prosthetic hand

Plus!

  • Talk with experts at Louisville Prosthetics
  • Chat with the University of Louisville bio-engineering department
  • Test out adaptive wheelchairs and talk with athletes with Parks and Recreation Adaptive Leader

All activities are included with the price of admission–that means it’s FREE for science center members!
