This year is the International Year of Chemistry, and to celebrate the Science Festival have designed a brand new event \u2013 Atomise.

Featuring hands-on, make and take workshops, shows, exhibitions and demonstrations, Atomise is a day out full of fizz and fascination.<\/p>\n

There are spectacular workshops at Edinburgh Zoo; interactive events at the National Museums and Adam House and a brand new partnership with the Scottish Storytelling Centre, all part of a programme offering diverse interpretations of science for families and adults.<\/p>\n
