Bring your creative ideas to life with the Imaginate Exhibit at Science North
The Imaginate exhibition is a fun and highly interactive exhibit that encourages creativity and innovation. Imaginate is a 6000 square foot exhibit that was developed by the Ontario Science Centre and has been at Reuben H. Fleet Science Center in San Diego, Pacific Science Center in Seattle, Lawrence Hall of Science in Berkeley CA, etc. The exhibit has 5 guiding themes used as pathways to innovation: Dream Big; Expect the Unexpected; Collaborate or Compete; Try, Try and Try Again; and Look To the World.
“When we were developing the exhibit, our goal was to shift people’s perception away from the idea that innovation is meant for the ‘elite,’ which can be intimidating,” said Mary Jane Conboy, Director of Science Content and Design for the Ontario Science. “We’ve layered in some inspiring stories but kept many of the experiences very open-ended, so each visitor will approach the exhibits differently.”
