Come and see the magic of science up close

It’s back! The third annual Science Wonder Garden Party is happening on Saturday 21 June at Begbroke Science Park – and once again it’s free. 

The Walled Garden will be filled with free, fun hands-on activities, including experiments, interactive talks, trails, exploratory games and art and science workshops.

Visitors of all ages can join in with a huge range of activities including:

• having your picture drawn by a robot caricaturist
• digging for artifacts with Oxford Archaeology 
• live talks from Oxford Sparks – including the forgotten earthquakes of central Asia, the colourful world of diabetes research, and clouded leopard conservation
• discovering meteorites with Space Store (2-4pm)
• meeting scientists based at Begbroke Science Park and looking down a microscope to see neurons up close

Free hot dogs and burgers will also be on offer from 12:30pm, on a first-come first-served basis until supplies run out, with a vegan option available too. You’re also very welcome to bring your own picnic along to enjoy.

Find out more and register now to be a part of this year’s Science Wonder Garden Party – you never know what you might find out!

The annual event is the latest in the programme of public engagement activities organised by Oxford University Development, part of the University’s joint venture with Legal & General.
