Overview
Time to sham-rock! 🍀
Join Cranbrook Institute of Science on Saturday, March 15 for Shamrock Science Day, a celebration of curiosity, discovery, and hands-on fun—designed and led by our talented Pontiac School District high school interns!
This event celebrates the dedication and achievements of 12 high school interns from the Pontiac School District’s International Technology Academy. At Cranbrook Institute of Science, we are committed to supporting the community by offering these interns academically and culturally enriching experiences that foster critical thinking, collaboration, and global citizenship.
Throughout their internship, these students have honed valuable skills in teamwork, time management, budgeting, and project development—and now, they’re excited to share their knowledge and celebrate with you!
From 11:00am to 2:00pm, embark on a colorful adventure throughout the Institute, collecting stickers as you explore a rainbow of activities—and fill up your special activity card to win a prize!
Sticker card activities during this event include:
🎨 Color Theory Discovery: Experiment with how colors interact and blend.
🪐 Planet Painting: Design your own planet—real or imaginary!
🦋 Butterfly Beauty: Craft and take home your own butterfly creation.
🦴 Fossil Ready: Learn what goes into fossil preservation and preparation.
💎 Mineral Mania: Play a mineral-matching game and uncover hidden gems.
🌈 And much more!
This program is made possible through the generous support of the DeRoy Testamentary Foundation.
Activities are FREE with general admission, and Pontiac residents can enjoy FREE general admission.
