Due to popular demand Chemistry Roadshow is back for our Summer Reading Program! We are very excited to welcome Texas A&M University Chemistry and Science Department along with Dr. James Pennington. Explore science through explosions, fire, goop and more brought to us by DOW Chemicals. “The Chemistry Road Show is a public service program with two complementary and interlocking goals: to entertain and educate students using chemistry.”

The four identical shows are free to the public and designed for ages five and up. There are explosions, loud noises and visual effects that may not be suitable for children under five years of age.

Free tickets will be given out 30 minutes before the program. Space is limited! No strollers or wagons will be allowed in the meeting room.
