    This gallery program is sure to get your mental gears turning! On select Saturday mornings, children and families can explore engineering first hand through playful activities presented in collaboration with students from The University of Texas's Cockrell School of Engineering. Projects could include paper airplane design, catapults, building a working circuit and sailboat cars. Check out this website, designed by a parent, that shows the step-by-step process his daughter took in her sailboat car project at one Engineering Saturday.

    Activities will be held in the Tinkerer's Workshop and are included with admission unless otherwise noted. Activities change all the time so come by soon for some engineering fun!
