About Ontario Science Centre
When the Ontario Science Centre first opened in 1969 it became renowned throughout the world for it's hands on approach to science. While most museums feature passive exhibits, the Ontario Science Centre had a strong emphasis on interactive 'hands-on' exhibits and live demonstrations. The Ontario Science Centre has attracted over 35 million visitors since it's opening in September 1969. The Science Centre markets their innovative exhibits and expertise internationally, from Trinidad to Turkey to Thailand.
In 1996, the province's first OMNIMAX theatre opened at the Science Centre. The addition of the Shoppers Drug Mart OMNIMAX . Theatre is a major component of a revitalization project that includes the introduction of new permanent exhibits, restaurant and banquet facilities, as well as a new glass-walled public entrance. The Centre has hundreds of exhibits throughout, many of them interactive. Exhibits include astronomy, nature, geology, human anatomy, music and more. Traveling exhibits are also hosted providing new things for visitors to see and explore. Outside the Science Centre there is an aquatic fountain that is also the largest outdoor hydraulophone in the world. This is played by placing your fingers over small openings to block the flow of water which produces a sound similar to that of a pipe organ. Access to this feature is free 24 hours a day. The Ontario Science Centre is a great place for a family visit rain or shine.
