We're on the Innovation Trail and we have loads of interactive experiences for 4 to 94 year olds! So if you want to be inspired by the fantastic things happening in the world of architecture, engineering and construction - please pop in and say hello.

Whether you are a little kid or a 'big kid' - it's fun to design in 3D

Follow the tutorial below and design a house in less than five minutes using the free educational resource TinkerCAD:

Everyone loves designing using magnets

What isn't always obvious is how many people put the hard work in behind the scenes to make this sort of thing happen

It always starts off with a sketch on the 'back of an envelope'

A pleasure to watch sketches turn into concepts turning into the real thing

So please pop in, bring your families and say 'hello'.

We're open every day 0930-1800 until September 9th.

I'll be volunteering next on Sunday 1st and Sunday 8th July if you want to be shown around.
