MOTAT - Weekend Experience!



"Imagination is the beginning of Creation" - George Bernard Shaw 

During June we are exhilarated to officially launch our brand new weekend experience specially designed to stimulate creative young minds. 
Unfortunately all good things must come to an end as you know, so it’s with this in mind that we bid farewell to two popular interactive travelling science exhibitions at the end of June. 
Read on to find out what we have up our sleeves for the July Holiday Experience and our extended stocktake sale from the MOTAT Shops.

There will be demonstrations of our differential analyser and telegraph machines alongside an inspirational story of a local innovator Michael Watling with his LOMAK keyboard.
BODY IN ACTION & EYETRACKERS

Two interactive travelling science exhibitions will be closing at the end of June. This is your last chance to explore the amazing journey through your body from the oesophagus slide to a heart that never stops beating in Body in Action. Then head over next door to be enthralled by the borderland between visual art and neuroscience in the University of Auckland’s Eyetrackers exhibition before it heads back to campus!
