I love the St. Louis Science Center. It's located in Forest Park and had free admission. There is a charge for special exhibits. I went to First Friday last night and had a ball. Every first Friday of the month the Science Center is open past there regular close time at 5pm and stays open until about 10pm. I saw the Live in the Sky last night which was free admission because it was 1st Friday. Every 1st Friday has a different theme and last night it was a movie making theme. There was various schools there educating us on how to create a film from start to finish...lighting, story telling, sound and actually playing a short role in your own film. All this and other exhibits were free last night as is every 1st Friday. There was various vendors present as well and of course food and snacks for purchase at the Science Center. We parked for free at the Planetarium's parking lot. There's a few cool exhibits outside before entering the Science Center. This place is awesome for any age kid at heart. They now sell alcohol for adults. There are 2 gift shops as well located inside the Planetarium and the other in the main building. There's an awesome section called Grow. This is an outside garden area where the Science Center grows food that is uses at its eateries. Very sustainable from the garden to the table. They even have live chickens and roosters with various stations that show you how to milk a cow and the use a tractors. Take pics with all of this and everything inside of the Science Center. There are 2 virtual reality rides inside in the Planetarium building. There is a fee for these rides and they're fun as I experienced one last year. It was awesome. The Omnimax is a huge circular movie theatre inside the Science Center. It's the biggest screen I've ever seen and they have various movies showing for a fee. This place is a must experience!
