Something for everyone

New audiences, greater reach and a new potential for increased understanding; the new TELUS World of Science – Calgary will be a place where young minds – curious, untrained and precocious – can take risks, test themselves (and their teachers) and challenge the status quo. It will be a place where audiences of all ages will have the freedom to ask questions, solve problems, create solutions and be free to have their ideas sometimes fail; the tenets of great innovative thinking. With a specific focus on teens and young adults, we will provide an engaging environment to expand their interests and awareness of science, technology and creativity at this crucial time in their education and career development.

Through the latest in digital technology and the partnerships to support it, the new TELUS World of Science will connect to all Canadians by providing immediate and continual access to programming beyond the walls of the building. Linkages with universities, industry, government research facilities, as well as other science centres will extend the impact and enrich the programs beyond anything that typical interactive exhibits have been able to achieve in the past.

The new facility will be cutting-edge, featuring the newest technologies related to learning, presentation and building sustainability. It will be the first new science centre of the 21st century.
