Making Music
Terry Longshore & SOU Honors Students
Friday, February 20
6 to 8 PM
Free for members and SOU ID holders
$10 Non-members
ScienceWorks and the SOU Honors College invite you to Making Music, a one-of-a-kind, immersive performance led by Dr. Terry Longshore. Created by Honors students reflecting on memory, change, and transition as their program comes to a close, this moving soundscape transforms ScienceWorks with percussion, found instruments, and spoken word. Experience two short performances woven throughout the museum — fleeting, powerful, and unforgettable.
Wander the museum as music comes alive.

Pi Day Celebration
March 14
All Day
Free with membership or admission
Celebrate Pi Day at ScienceWorks with a full day of hands-on fun March 14 (that is, 3.14, π). Drop in and explore rotating, Pi-themed activities happening throughout the museum all day long — from playful math challenges to creative problem-solving. Whether you're curious about the power of π (the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter, calculated to over a trillion digits!), or just love to learn by doing, there’s always something new to discover.
Turn the wheel. Change the flow. Build a river. Make a wave.
Every choice creates a ripple — shape the water and see what happens. Stay curious!
