Don't Miss Strange Saturday at Discovery Place Science

By Discovery Place Science June 11, 2017

RIPLEY’S BUYING BIZARRE

Discovery Place Science will host our first-ever Bizarre Buying Bazaar (think Antique Roadshow), in conjunction with our newest exhibition, The Science of Ripley’s Believe it or Not!®

Do you have a strange art collection or other peculiar piece hiding in your attic? Bring your odd or unbelievable items to be “odd-praised” at the Ripley’s Bizarre Buying Bazaar, June 17 - 18 at Discovery Place Science.

If your hidden treasure meets our strange standards, it could be purchased on the spot to become a permanent artifact for Ripley’s Believe It Or Not!, the most iconic collection of oddities in the world.

Oddity owners participating in the Bizarre Buying Bazaar will receive $5 off the price of one general admission to Discovery Place Science. This offer may not be combined with other offers and is not valid for IMAX® Dome Theatre films.






CALL FOR WEIRD TALENT

Can you swallow swords, talk backward or contort body parts in unbelievable ways? Do you have an unusual talent that makes you crazy-awesome? Discovery Place Science wants to know!

We are also celebrating wonderfully weird talents on Saturday, June 17, as part of our new exhibition, The Science of Ripley's Believe It or Not!®

All participants will be filmed and your skills may end up on the Museum's social media channels. Additional opportunities to showcase your wonderfully weird talents will be available throughout the summer.

If you’re interested in performing, fill out our form and tell us about your talent.

Participants will be given a voucher for $5 off the price of one general Museum admission. This offer is not combinable with other offers or valid for IMAX® Dome Theatre films. The Science of Ripley’s Believe it or Not is included with Museum admission.
