Purim, the holiday that inspires imagination and creativity, is a great opportunity to meet dragons at Scientific Demo Shows at Medatech, the National Museum of Space Science and Technology in Haifa. The museum can be reached from Balfour Street 12 or Shmaryahu Levin Street 25.

Do dragons exist? Do they really fly and spit fire? Are they friendly or should they be scared?

In the demo show we will get to know the traits of the dragons we imagine and understand how they can fire and fly, hear about species of dragons in different cultures around the world and meet animals that remind dragons of their behavior, how they look and their name.

The Scientific Demo Show "Introduction to Dragons" is for families with children age five and older and will take place on Purim in Degani Hall (1st floor) in the historic exhibition building, at: 11:30, 12:30, 13:30, 14:30, 15:30.
