Get Moving!
The admission ticket includes an unguided tour of the Get moving! exhibition and a laboratory activity moderated by a scientific moderator.
You must reserve your place before going to the Museum.
Physical activity is essential to preserve health. But to what extent is it important? What happens when the body is moving? What can we do to move more? The Get Moving! exhibition is an invitation to spring into action to answer these questions and many others!
This interactive exhibition will make you want to get moving more, for your health and for fun!
Laboratory
Muscles in action!
Accompanied by our scientific moderators, participate in our laboratory activity.
Having big muscles a guarantee of great strength? Participants will kick into action and use a dynamometer to test their own muscle strength. They will demystify the notions of cramps, stiffness, and muscle fatigue. To better understand the latter, they will be introduced to biochemistry and measure the pH of various samples.

Discover what kind of athlete or fan are you?
As a parent, when you go to a game with your child, do you think you’re more of an “armchair quarterback” parent, a peaceful parent, or a bit of both? Are you a fan of soccer or hockey? What kind of athlete do you think you are? A disruptive sportsman, a peaceful sportsman, or a bit of both?
