Summer Science Series – What’s in My Watershed?
June 22, 2022
1:30 pm–2:30 pm
Join Waterworks Museum Staff live at the museum as we learn about watersheds! Participants in this program will conduct their own lab tests on water from a nearby stream. Then, with the help of our large-scale watershed model, they’ll see how various pollutants can impact our water system and consider what kinds of things both water experts and the public alike can do to stop them. This program is recommended for ages 7-12 and is free of charge, suggested donation $5. Face coverings are recommended but not required. Help us plan by reserving your free tickets in advance.

Moving Water: From Ancient Innovations to Modern Challenges
Ancient civilizations engineered water systems that sustained communities for thousands of years. This exhibition spotlights six places that innovated ways to deliver, and control water for human use. It also looks at how climate change is impacting all of those places, forcing public officials to consider new ways to keep the water flowing.
