Opens Saturday, January 21st - The Discovery Center, a local children's museum is holding a special event for kids on Saturday January 21st. Families will enter into Nick Park’s colorful character’s known as Wallace & Gromit. Park is the creator of the animation that is seen on both film and television.

Visitors will have the opportunity to step into the popular North England home of cheese-loving inventor Wallace and his loyal and intelligent dog, Gromit. In Wallace’s world, inventions and contraptions often go terribly – but hilariously! – wrong, providing a natural opportunity to explore themes around problem-solving and resilience. 

Again, the new exhibit, Wallace & Gromit: Get Cracking! will open on Saturday January 21st at the discovery center in Murfreesboro.
