Supported by Fry's Food Stores, guests of all ages can engage in interactive exhibits and hands-on activities and demonstrations on Saturday, Sept. 7 and Sunday, Sept. 8. The Science Center is located at 600 E. Washington St., in downtown Phoenix.
The free weekend also marks the closing weekend of OceanXperience, an immersive, adventure-driven traveling exhibition designed to raise awareness for the world’s oceans. Guests can step aboard an interactive replica of OceanXplorer, the world’s most advanced research and filmmaking vessel, and choose a mission that sparks curiosity.
"We are thrilled to partner with Fry's Food Stores to offer this free weekend to our community," Guy Labine, The Hazel A. Hare President & CEO of Arizona Science Center, shared in a press release. "This collaboration allows us to make science accessible to everyone and encourage lifelong learning."
