Looking for something fun to do over the school break?

Join Waterworks Museum Staff on Zoom for a Candy Engineering Workshop!

First, we’ll read “One Sweet Race.” Then, we’ll learn a little bit about simple machines and the engineering design process.

Finally, we’ll make our own Candy Cars and experiment with different gumdrop structures.

This workshop is recommended for ages 4 – 10.

This workshop will be run twice on 12/29: first at 10am and then again at 3:30pm.

This is a VIRTUAL workshop.

You will be sent a Zoom link to access the class after you have purchased your ticket.

When checking out, you may choose to use your own candy and materials on the day of the program ($4), or, you can pick up a kit curbside at the museum in advance ($10) on one of the following days:

Saturday 12/19: 11am – 3pm
