Doc Dissections

Saturday 12/16 | 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm

Get in touch with your inner scientist and dissect an organ (a heart, an eye, or a brain) individually, in a pair, or as a group of four. Get guidance from a doctor and one of The Health Museum’s science educators and learn about the organ’s anatomy and how to keep a healthy body.

Live Organ Dissection

Thursdays | 3:00 pm

Join us and our favorite sidekick, Morty B-Bones, for a live organ dissection and a fun-filled family game of trivia bursting with a wide range of entertaining questions for all ages. Get your pulse or neurons stimulated with this live experience in the McGovern Theater. We’ll be waiting, organ in hand!

Sleigh and Shop

Sunday 12/17 | 10:00 am – 1:00 pm

Join the holiday cheer at the Health Museum’s “Sleigh and Shop” event! Sip on hot chocolate, enjoy holiday treats, and snag sensational deals! Need a last minute gift for the healthcare worker in your life? We have you covered with discounts on the season’s best gifts!

Dyslexia Simulations

Thursday 12/21 | 4:00 pm – 7:00 pm

Encounter firsthand what it’s truly like living with dyslexia. Participants rotate among four interactive learning stations that simulate various language-related tasks similar to those encountered in the classroom and workplace. Time has been set aside at each station to discuss the experiences.
