Carleton University’s Chemistry Department is back with its 13th annual Chemistry Magic Show on Sunday, January 19, 2020. Come see flames, explosions, amazing colour changes, things that glow in the dark, and so much more!

The first show begins in Richcraft Hall at 10:30 a.m. with two more at 1:00 p.m. and 3:45 p.m. respectively. Each show will last about 1 hour. This free event features fun targeted at the whole family with explosions, a look at the inner workings of fireworks, reactions that can tell time, and things that glow in the dark. The show is appropriate and fun for everyone ages 5 and up. Please be aware that there will be loud noises that may scare some younger children.
