The Physics Factory brings physics demonstrations to schools and events throughout Arizona and North America. Inspired by the successful Physics Phun Nights at the University of Arizona, the Physics Factory has grown to include outreach programs, student mentoring, resources for science teachers, and many other programs.
Raising kids' interest in science can be a challenge, especially if they've only experienced "science" as textbook drudgery. Our traveling Physics Bus shows get their attention with huge sparks, invisible forces, smoke, lasers, and other amazing phenomena.
But science becomes meaningful when it applies to our daily lives. To that end, we use everyday objects in our hands-on learning stations and mentoring environments, to demystify science and to help students appreciate their amazing world.
The Physics Factory is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization supported through grants and private donations.
