Whitaker Center for Science and the Arts is excited to unveil its newest featured exhibit, Mazes & Brain Games, opening to the public on Saturday, June 7. Sponsored by UPMC and created by Minotaur Mazes, this immersive experience will challenge visitors of all ages to think differently, move creatively, and get lost on purpose in a world of puzzles, illusions, and full-body games.
Mazes & Brain Games transforms the UPMC Science Center into a labyrinth of brain-teasing adventures. Problem-solving, logic, and hands-on exploration lead the way. Each uniquely themed maze, ranging from the visually confounding Maze of Illusions to the musically interactive Music Maze, offers dynamic challenges designed to stimulate the mind and engage the senses. Other highlights include the Web Maze, Puzzle Maze, Finger Maze, and a vibrant Color Maze that will keep guests guessing at every turn.
“Our mission at Whitaker Center is to ignite curiosity and inspire learning through experiences that are both educational and entertaining,” said Mary Oliveira, President & CEO of Whitaker Center. “Mazes & Brain Games does exactly that. It is a thrilling, family-friendly adventure that brings STEM concepts to life through movement, creativity, and critical thinking.”
This exhibit marks the latest installment in Whitaker Center’s 25th Anniversary celebration. It reflects the Center’s continued commitment to presenting world-class, interactive science experiences that spark wonder and exploration.
The exhibit is open during regular Science Center hours, Fridays through Mondays from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Tickets are available online or at the door. For details, visit WhitakerCenter.org.
