Exeter Science Centre brings you a Climate Exhibition created in collaboration with scientists from the University of Exeter and the Met Office and members of local schools, community groups and organisations. This is a re-imagining of our Climate Exhibition from March 2022.
From 6th-10th September 2023, coinciding with the British Science Festival in Exeter, we’ll be showcasing an amazing exhibition in Maketank, Exeter, for people of all ages to come and chat with local scientists involved in some inspiring research.
The exhibition is centred around climate science– which not only helps us to understand our own climate and how it is changing, but also the climates on other planets! Encounter other worlds whilst contemplating what is so special about our own. Learn about how we understand, measure and predict the climate on Earth and beyond and share ideas for how we can all better preserve our Earth.
Booking isn't essential for this event but it really helps us to know how many people to expect each day and priority will be given to ticket holders at busy times. Please aim to arrive at the start of your chosen time slot. Once you arrive, you can stay as long as you like.
