New Exhibits in 2008

Grossology: The (Impolite) Science of the Human Body

January 19 through May 11, 2008 only

Sometimes it’s stinky; sometimes it’s crusty; and sometimes it’s slimy. Based on the best-selling Grossology books, this exhibit uses sophisticated animatronics and imaginative displays to tell you the good, the bad, and the downright ugly about runny noses, body odor, and much more.  Strong is the only museum in the Northeast to host this wildly popular exhibit in 2008.  Don’t miss it!

A collaboration between Science World, Advanced Exhibits, a division of Advanced Animations, LLC, and Grossology author Sylvia Branzei.
