Just Add Water will be back and better than ever June 15 - August 22, 2013!

Warning: You will get wet!! Drip, splash, splosh, woosh! With elements that are both simple and wildly unpredictable, there are many ways to get wet, to play and to learn in this outdoor summer exhibit filled with swirling, whirling, geyser-filled adventures. Guests can pump, channel, pour, sprinkle, divert and paint with this extraordinary substance. The Geysers, Water Works, Whirlpools and Fountains and the Blank Slate Gallery will provide the means to direct, divert and contain water. 

Please note, this is a water play exhibit, not a water park. You will get wet and may want to bring a towel or quick-drying clothes. Adults are responsible for the safety of their children at all times. Swimming is not allowed and there is no lifeguard on duty. Shoes are required at all times.

All Just Add Water activities are included with Museum admission and are weather permitting. The exhibit closes 30 minutes before the Museum.
