Bottled Lightning

Have you ever wondered why you get shocked sometimes when touching metal? Well, this is to do with static electricity, the power source of lightning. Come along and get to see some of the many ways we can make and use static electricity, and maybe also build a way to store it!

Join Scientist in Residence, Sam Verne to explore physics in this hands-on activity.

Please note: This workshop is recommended for participants aged 5+, children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by their parents.
