Year 2014 was the first year of activity fully carried out on brand new exhibition of EXPERYMENT Science Centre in Gdynia. During this very successful time, EXPERYMENT welcomed 260 000 visitors. All guests had opportunity to experience more than 200 interactive, fascinating exhibits. During 2014 there were also few temporary exhibits in EXPERYMENT such as “Urban Bees – the bees in my City” (summer 2014) or “Feel the art” (still available until the end of February 2015). Exhibition “Feel the art” makes users understand how blind people perceive the world we live in.

For Science Centre AHHAA in Tartu, Estonia, 2014 was a great success in many ways. First off, our annual number of visitors reached almost 220 000 (surpassing the 2013 total of 190 000). Combined with the events that took place outside AHHAA, both in Estonia and abroad, over 320 000 people took part in our activities last year. It is also worth noting that half of AHHAA’s visitors come from abroad – mostly from the neighboring states Latvia and Russia.
