$5.50 - $8.75
Raise The Roof is a lively look at structures we depend upon, but rarely think much about. With its intriguing, hands-on activities and vivid images, it’s sure to challenge your visitors to examine their own interactions with these every day wonders.
Visitors will travel to great heights and distant ages to investigate the foundations of architecture and engineering. They’ll step over the threshold of an authentic Mongolian house, climb to the 19th floor of a skyscraper under construction, listen as their voices are carried to distant concert halls or their very own living rooms, use a doll-house model to create the deadly conditions for carbon monoxide poisoning! Visitors will be drawn from one activity to the next to personally witness the principles involved in establishing, sustaining, and living in buildings of all kinds.
