Ben's Bubble Show

  • Location: ISM Dickson Mounds Museum, Lewistown
  • Date: Sunday, April 19, 2015, 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM

Dickson Mounds Museum is hosting Ben’s Bubble Show on Sunday, April 19, 2015 at 1:00 pm. This one-hour presentation will feature art, science, and a touch of magic as Ben Jimenez will use his bare hands and a few tools to create beautiful, humorous, and mind boggling soap bubble sculptures, do bubble magic, make giant bubbles, shoot bubble blizzards at people, and much more.

As part of the performance Ben will introduce, reinforce, demonstrate, and play with the principles of science. The audience will be asked to use their critical thinking skills and help him demonstrate the scientific method and its use in daily life. In addition, Ben will illuminate the science of bubbles with various tricks and illusions. Afterwards, Museum visitors will enjoy hands-on bubble activities.

All ages are welcome and admission is free. Tickets are required as seating is limited in the auditorium, and will be available on a first come, first serve basis beginning at noon the day of the program. Call the Museum at 309-547-3721 with any questions.
