Calendar of Events & Activities

Science Rendezvous Kingston is a free, annual science festival for Southeastern Ontario families hosted by Queen's University. Visitors will experience hands-on demonstrations, awe-inspiring exhibits and fun experiments to inspire the next generation!

The Museum of Health Care's booth theme is "Just Breathe".

Breathing comes naturally to us all. It is an automatic response in our body that we don’t often think about or pay attention to. It is when we can’t breathe or are struggling to breathe that we understand the importance of that automatic function, and the medical innovations that help us to….just breathe. Explore the evolution of the ventilator with the Museum of Health Care! Discover how our lungs work and how ventilators have evolved over the centuries. This booth will take your breath away!

Join us on May 11, 2024, at the Slush Puppie Place and on The Tragically Hip Way.

We are looking forward to seeing you at Science Rendezvous Kingston 2024!
