Take the wonder and fun that is Telus World of Science. Add to that a one-of-a-kind event that explores the art and science of mixology, and the result is Science of Cocktails this Thursday, February 4th from 8pm to midnight.
This unique fundraising event is in support of Science World’s Class Field Trip Program, which provides free class field trips to Science World for students at underserved schools in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland. An average class field trip to Science World (including transportation to and from the facility, a workshop, an OMNIMAX film, and a take-home activity) costs between $900 and $1,100 per class. Funds raised at Science of Cocktails will allow hundreds of classes, and thousands of students to experience all that Science World has to offer.
