We all have a creative side. Scientists, engineers and inventors use their imagination, tools and materials to solve life's big problems. Now it’s your turn to get creative and see what you can create and solve.

Get hands-on in the Creativity Zone, with a range of interactive exhibits. Solve challenges, make objects move on our spinning table and marvel at inspirational creations featured on our LEGO® wall. Don’t forget to capture the fun and share your self-portrait at the selfie booth!

On now in the the Making Studios - build your own moon buggy using a range of materials. Before you take it home, take it for a test drive on our mock-up of the moon’s bumpy surface.

Please note: Photographs taken on the Selfie Booth are not stored on the device or by Life Science Centre, and the device is not connected to the internet.

The Making Studios has been made possible through the support of the Inspiring Science Fund – a partnership between UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) and Wellcome.

Additional support has been provided by The Garfield Weston Foundation and the Catherine Cookson Charitable Trust.
