Meet the Object Whisperers

Hi. We are Amazing Object Whisperers. You see objects speak through us.

The Amazing Object Whisperers have been traveling all around Minnesota telling narratives about Minnesotans' stuff. And behind every object is a story. Every item you touch speaks and if you listen closely, you'll hear a story—a story of science. I hope you'll visit me at the museum and learn about the science behind people's stuff.

If your organization is interested in Suitcase Science and would like an Amazing Object Whisperer to come to you, please contact Rebecca Talbot at (651) 265-5966 or for more information and to schedule a performance!

This is a project funded with money from the vote of the people of Minnesota on November 4, 2008.
