At UMMA, kids can use similar forms to register the genes that create the body parts they like most about themselves. They can also mix body parts from other works of art in the exhibit to create new organisms. Also at UMMA, the Hands-On Museum demonstrates how organisms with identical genetic instructions can look different. Kids can also enter a contest to design a bookmark and listen to a story. Adults can talk to researchers about the importance of molecular methods in their work.
Admission is free, although donations are welcome .
