Our World

Big Changes!

Thanks to significant support from BC Hydro, we've undergone big changes in Our World. We’ve got a whole new hands-on (and feet-on!) electricity exhibit, complete with a kinetic wheel, a wind tunnel and solar panels. You can even try your hand at using water to generate electricity! Be sure to stop by and give it a try yourself.

Our World encourages us to find solutions for a better future—while examining the environmental, social and economic factors that all need to come together to make for a sustainable society. Through colourful, bright and imaginative exhibitory, Our World engages our attention, while focusing on the everyday choices that we make and how those choices will impact our lives, both immediately and in the future.
