We’ve translated five years of Snart Club events and activities into science art recipes you can try at home! These activities (and free resources) are designed to help you take your curiosity for a walk. You can go by yourself or with friends, discovering something different each time.
We recommend starting your journey with something from “the here and now” and venturing out from there. Oh by the way – when you get back – could you share a photo with @snartclub to show us what you found?
HERE AND NOW
Take a moment to check in with where you are right now – you’ll never be exactly here again!
Tasty, punchy little exercises to tune in your awareness to the science that surrounds you.
What makes us care about something enough to tend to it? Explore our choose-your-own-adventure thought experiment to trace out your tenderness.
OUR NEIGHBOURHOOD
BEE DAY PICNIC

Can we harness the magic of kerbside junk to make something spectacular and unexpected?
KIMCHI AND COMMUNITY
Our bodies are not just ours – there are just as many microbes in/on you as human cells, and some of them come from our friends and family! When we come together to make and eat food, it’s the collaboration between all of our microbiomes that makes it delicious.
WIDER UNIVERSE
GLOBAL POWER AND THE INTERNET
What happens when everyone in the world can talk to each other at the same time, and is that what the Internet really gives us?
BIG HOLES, SMALL PARTICLES, AND THE PHYSICALITY OF TIME
It’s hard to imagine the Universe when it was small, but we’re surrounded by HUGE and TINY clues about what it looked like.
