[edit] ScienceWorks in Ashland, Oregon
ScienceWorks is a fun place for people of all ages to attend, whether it be to bring your child in to learn how to stick their hand through a gigantic bubble, to seeing a demonstration of lighting a dollar on fire and seeing it not burn. ScienceWorks exhibits from Ashland have received national and international attention and have been sold to the Singapore Science Center, Technopolis in Belgium, Miami Museum of Science, TELUS World of Science, Calgary and many museums in the U.S. Most of the exhibits are built in-house at their state-of-the-art fabrication center. They include the Shadow Wall, where you can pose in front of the wall, and watch the strobe light capture your shadow. There is the bubble-ology room, where you can surround yourself with a bubble, stick your arm through a bubble without it breaking, and make long bubble tubes. Make an Impression is a 5-foot high wall made of 65,000 plastic "pins." Push up against it and you'll get an impression of your face, hands, or entire body in any pose you desire.
