Ahhaa Turns 15
The Ahhaa Center turns 15 on Saturday, and it will mark the occasion with an all-day treasure hunt at its Tartu location.
The discovery center and science museum has been visited 1.7 million times. Before its new building opened in downtown Tartu in 2011 (and a branch in Tallinn), it was housed in the Observatory, then in the Lõunakeskus shopping center where its 4D cinema still operates.
"Ahhaa is not just a place to work, it is a lifestyle," said board member Pilvi Kolk. "Working at Ahhaa has made me look at the world through different eyes - no matter where you are you think how one or another exciting thing could be applied in Ahhaa. The limit is often the imagination."
Both of the planetariums will have showings on September 1.
All tickets will be half-price from September 1 - the traditional day of learning - until September 22.
