When Science Meets Color

Unleash children's boundless creativity and 'paint' your way through the Macao Science Centre! This event is part of the summer activity series co-organized by the Macao Science Centre and Music Cracker.

Event Overview

This summer, the Macao Science Centre and Music Cracker have prepared a series of activities for children and families to create colorful memories in Macao. The 'Science of Colors' Children's Painting Competition is a highlight of this series.

In this activity, children can use their imagination to paint their vision of the 'Science Centre' based on any scene inside or outside the museum. No prior painting experience is required, as professional guides will be on hand to assist. In addition to the competition, docents will lead children on a fun and educational tour of the Science Centre.
