How much does it cost?

Each experience costs $100/ 1 hr for up to 30 students. We are only booking one program per class at a time due to facility and staff limitations. Please contact us if cost is a barrier.

Programs are generally 60 minutes long. We are happy to tailor program length to your classes needs. Please speak with us to customize your experience.

After booking, you will receive a package with suggestions on how to make your visit go smoothly.
