…MAJOR WORKS OF ART…
Three major works of art now grace the Science Centre, the result of a million dollar international competition.
Cloud

Lotic Meander

FUNtain
An installation that is more than just a keyboard or a fountain; it’s a ‘Hydraulophone’ - one of the largest in North America. Created by U of T professor Steve Mann, FUNtain allows you to create amazing harmonic landscapes, or simply your favourite tune - with water!

*NOTE: FUNtain closes when the weather gets cold, so make sure to get your Titanic tickets early.
…AND OLD FAVOURITES TOO!
Even though we’ve renovated many of our spaces, including creating a new exhibit hall for Titanic, many visitor favourites are still here for your enjoyment, including our hair-raising Electricity Demonstration, the hands-on challenges of our Sport Hall and the many mind-teasers of our MindWorks Hall.
