The Ontario Science Centre is a highly interactive science and technology museum in Toronto, Canada, including live demonstrations, a rainforest, and a huge dome theatre. Opening to the public in 1969, the museum’s construction and designs were part of a large-scale movement in Canada towards brutalism, which was a minimalist approach that highlighted the necessary components of a building rather than adorning it with purely decorative features.
The Ontario Science Centre is on Don Mills Road close to Don Valley Parkway, northeast of city centre Toronto, and is therefore in the perfect position to participate in and contribute to the community.

What are the highlights of the Ontario Science Centre in Toronto?
Monumental hands-on exhibits steal the show at the Ontario Science Centre, with the world’s largest outdoor hydraulophone and fountain right outside its doors and accessible 24 hours a day. Body experiments test your strengths and weaknesses, helping you find your physical limits.
Exhibits can also be thought experiments, exploring serious topics such as race, gender, conservation of the environment, and culture, among more lighthearted ideas like what’s in space and constructing a rollercoaster. The Ontario Science Centre introduces visitors to facts discovered around the world as well as beliefs held throughout the world, and how important these are to our everyday life and future.
