Science Circus: Step Right Up! is the latest traveling exhibition of The Mind Museum, showcasing the amusing, the peculiar, and the extraordinary in our everyday experiences, in the form of interactive exhibits that deceive the senses and boggle the mind. Be ready to #EnterTheScienceCircus this coming October 28, 2016!
Note* – The photos below are not the actual circus areas but a sneak peek of the upcoming exhibition.
While the nearly 250-year history of the circus abounds with awe-inspiring demonstrations of physical skill – such as high-flying aerial artists, to death-defying daredevils – the Science Circus challenges our traditional notions of a circus by focusing on the mind’s “acrobatic” perceptual tricks.
As the guests enter the exhibition, they are welcomed by a festive, colorful façade which sets the tone for the sights and sounds they are about to experience. These interactive exhibits are displayed simultaneously in three adjacent Rings. Guests can go in any of the Rings in the order they please.
Ring One, or Deception Perception is a menagerie of exhibits that will prompt you to question whether to see is to believe. Can you always trust your senses? Is what you see as real as it seems? Can your brain produce motion where there is none? Your first venture into the Circus will unveil the “blindness” of your mind’s eye.
Ring Two highlights Pieces of Incredible Engineering, where guests can engage their minds in puzzles and relish how math and art come together. This central area is animated by simple machines, and engages guests in activities that evoke their inner engineer.
Last but not least, Ring Three is Encounters with the Masters, where guests can interact with and learn the secrets of the Masters of Illusion. They can take on the challenges posed by each Master, and discover how our brains can be ensnared by smoke and mirrors.
The Science Circus: Step Right Up! exhibition vividly illustrates how our everyday experiences are full of delightful secrets that we can uncover, to discover more about ourselves and the world around us.

Oh, I hope we can visit this Science Circus, hindi na kami nakaabot sa Dino Play.

I’m excited to bring the little boy to the circus. Not sure if he will appreciate it at his age though but I know he will have fun.
This is a perfect activity for family day especially for moms with bigger kids. What a great way to introduce science to kids 🙂

Mind museum is one of those places I’d love my kids to go to. 🙂 Seeing places in the Philippines for kids makes me want to have a vacation right away. 🙂
My boys love touring museums and The Mind Museum is one of their personal favorites. We went to their DinoPlay exhibit and my youngest had so much fan playing dino. I am sure he will love this exhibit as well.
My son has been asking about circus and magic shows so this will be a great place to bring him this sembreak!
This is a nice exhibit that kids can learn a lot.
Wow! This is fun! Would love to bring my kids there! 🙂 will put this on schedule!
I think it was 2014 when I first visited The Mind Museum. Would love to come back with my nieces!
This is a great exhibit. Hoping they’ll have this still when my son is a little older na. Kids will surely learn a lot.
The Science Circus is definitely a good addition to the Mind Museum. My son would love to see this.
Our entire family had a great time at Dino Play at the Mind Museum. I’m sure the Science Circus will be just as fun too. Can’t wait to visit it soon! 🙂

The Science Circus concept is so smart, what a great way to show kids the fun side of science! I wish we can visit Mind Museum soon!
We haven’t visited Mind Museum for more than a year now. I’m sure there’s a lot of changes and added attractions, too.

My children will be asking to go to Mind Museum again once they see this.
I haven’t visited the Mind Museum since a long long time ago. I’d bring the kids there when they’re a bit older.
We should visit The Mind Museum soon!
I want to visit Mind Museum with my toddler but I guess she’s too young for that. Can’t wait for her to turn 4 and explore science together. I want her to learn while having fun.
We went to the Science Circus and it was definitely worth the visit. Even my teens enjoyed it!
