National Science Week

Saturday 9 August 2025

Join us at the Glassworks for National Science Week as we explore the dynamic science of glass, heat, and transformation!

Start with a free live hotshop demonstration where glassblowers shape molten glass before your eyes. Then, dive into hands-on creativity by joining a fused glass activity using special colour-changing glass—an exciting blend of art and science for all ages.
