Making It! Discovery Centre

Making It! Discovery Centre

Hands on interactive exhibits on two floors explaining how things are made. Visitors receive a basket of component parts to make up one of ten kits: it's yours to take home.

Design and text your own fizzy drink! What will it be? Chicken Flavour? Yuk!! There are light boards to explore designing, lots of materials to test: soft and yucky, bendy stretchy, soft and fluffy or rough and toughy.

Also open during Nottinghamshire school holidays. Plus we have a programme of 2hr special events for children.

Educational Visits and Outreach

Schools within a 1 hour drive from Making it! can benefit from our new outreach service. We also offer our Interactive Galleries to schools who prefer to leave the classroom and venture out on school trips. Please contact us for details.
