Smashing Pumpkins

Watch Newton’s laws of motion take on new perspective and turn your decaying jack-o-lantern into exciting science! Your porch décor can become a pumpkin projectile using our giant trebuchet, or surrender it for target practice as part of the enormous citadel of squash! Construct a mini-catapult of your own, create a craft, fashion a bird feeder, design autumn artwork, and celebrate the harvest with a smashing good time. When the launching ends, pumpkin pieces are collected and fed to local livestock – everybody wins!  Included with museum admission.
