What: Messfest 2012
Where: Carnegie Science Center
When: 10 a.m.-5 p.m.
Carnegie Science Center is breaking out its messiest, sloppiest, grossest activities for a one-of-a-kind celebration guaranteed to kick off 2012 with a plop, splash, squish, and fizz with its sixth annual MessFest on Sunday, Jan. 1.
MessFest features a variety of exciting, hands-on activities available only once a year. From 10 am to 5 pm, visitors will have the chance to get slimy with oobleck, a gooey substance that feels solid when picked up, but then slips through the fingers like a liquid. The Egg Drop activity invites visitors to encase a raw egg in various packing materials, then to drop it over the outdoor railing to see whether it breaks. Kids can make Steelers noisemakers, become messy artists with finger painting, create their own ‘Mars’ soil as they explore the characteristics of the Red Planet’s ‘dirt’, make sidewalk chalk out of plaster of Paris and tempera paint, and compete in a pi-eating contest.
