The Lab at Lake Highlands has officially moved and opened as The Lab at Lakewood in the Historic Junius Heights neighborhood. The new location has more outdoor space — ideal for experiments involving a greenhouse, yard, garden or compost — plus there is now outside play equipment too. The new digs has doubled the capacity of The Lab, but owner Melissa Wright still wants to keep the programs small.
This summer, The Lab will feature what Melissa calls all sorts of good, “nerdy chemistry stuff.” Every week will have a new theme, every day a new program … like fingerprinting detective work, aromatherapy/taste exploration and an art-meets-science program.
The grand opening is set for June 5 from 10 a.m.–2 p.m. with lots of hands-on activities, snacks and family-friendly fun for everyone.
The Lab at Lakewood is a fun alternative for birthday parties and school trips, where the focus is on a multi-sensory approach that makes learning about science fun.
