Video Conferencing
The Powerhouse Museum is offering a number of Video Conferencing programs in 2012 focused on science, visual arts and design. Full details of upcoming sessions are

A fantastic way to inspire students, these excursions provide students with a range of learning experiences such as; the opportunity to interact with designers, artists and scientists, experience significant objects from the Museum’s collection or partake in a
pre-visit introduction to an exhibition that students will be soon visiting.
