Events and Programs

Prepare for fun, interaction, and scientific excitement when you participate in our events or programs at the Lancaster Science Factory. See below for our calendar of events, as well as the various programs we offer.

Homeschool Programs - With a variety of great classes and activities just for home school and cyber school families, this is one link you don't want to miss. 2012 - 2013 information now available!

Summer Camps - The Factory is the hottest place to enjoy science over the summer. Now children can come to several different camps we're offering during the weeks off from school.

Birthday Parties - What could be cooler than having your birthday surrounded by scientific awesomeness? Check out all the packages we offer.

Cub Scout Programs - Troops, Packs, Dens, lend me your Scouts! And bring them to the Factory for pins, badges, patches, and fun!

Girl Scout Programs - that engage Daisies, Brownies and Juniors in the physical sciences, engineering, and technology. For many reasons, girls are often not offered encouragement to participate in these areas of science.

Night Shift - The fun at the Fac happens after the sun sets. Your group can stay the night on the Factory floor. With programs, exhibits, and meals, it's an experience you'll never forget.
