We had a smaller version of that sort of thing on one floor of our local museum - we loved spending time there. They decided to relocate the museum and the whole thing has been closed for several years - and I can't see it being open this year like it was supposed to be :( What a shame – that looks a wonderful place.

I'm so sorry they're tearing down and selling off your beloved science center. So many children will miss out. I find the body works exhibits utterly evil. There are many misconceptions about these money-making exhibits that I wrote about a while back here: <> I don't know which exhibit your science center will be running and where they get their cadavers, but I think it's an issue the public should be aware of. I'm glad your family had so many wonderful memories at the site and I hope you find some new places for new memories. ~Alicia Oh Risa, that SUCKS.

Given what I've heard about the planned new facility (and the fact that it won't open for over a year), I don't think it's ever going to be the same. A big thanks to all the volunteers over the years who have helped, encouraged, and engaged with our children. The Calgary Science Centre is going to be sorely missed by our family.
