| | Flint, MI - Sloan Museum of Discovery has announced their next traveling exhibit will be Mazes & Brain Games, opening Feb. 3, through May 19, 2024, in the FUN Gallery exhibition hall. Mazes & Brain Games is an interactive exhibit for multi-generations of families to enjoy together. The interactive exhibit winds its way over 5,000 square feet with 60+ puzzling experiences that inspire exploration and ingenuity. Visitors will test their perceptions through the maze of illusions, become a "webmaster" by climbing through an intricate web of ropes without getting tangled in the Web Maze, and get lost in a network of color in the Color Maze, among many other experiences.
Mazes & Brain Games blends education and physical activity. The exhibit poses questions, creates empathy, dispels myths and challenges perceptions. The versatility in this exhibit medium makes for a unique learning tool for both children and adults.
The current traveling exhibit, REAL BODIES: THE EXHIBITION, closes January 14, 2024, after a 6-month run at Sloan. For tickets to see this current exhibit, go to SloanLongway.org/Real-Bodies.

REAL BODIES will connect audiences to a deeper sense of what it means to be alive.

| | About Sloan Museum of Discovery
Sloan Museum of Discovery and Longway Planetarium are overseen by the non-profit Flint Institute of Science and History (F.I.S.H.) with a shared mission to engage communities on a learning journey in history and science. Located within the Flint Cultural Center Campus in Flint, Michigan, Sloan Museum of Discovery opened July 16, 2022, with four primary hands-on learning galleries and one exhibition hall for special traveling exhibits. The original Sloan Museum opened in 1966 as the Sloan Panorama of Transportation, named after long-time General Motors president, chairman and CEO Alfred P. Sloan. The new Sloan Museum of Discovery is nearly twice the size at 107,000 square feet and completely re-built into a re-imagined world-class, hands-on science and history museum. It is supported in part by the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, National Endowments for the Arts, and the Michigan Arts and Culture Council (MACC). Sloan Museum of Discovery programs are funded in part by the Genesee County Arts Education and Cultural Enrichment Millage. Learn more at SloanLongway.org.
