Mr Fix It

Discover the hands-on exhibits at Exploration Place, where visitors are taken inside the experiments and exhibitions to the point that their hands become a vital part of the total experience. You're invited to get closer to science, as you encounter traveling exhibits like CSI: The Experience, test your flight skills on a flight simulator, and step inside a tornado with the Tornado Simulator. On your visit to the museum, you'll also get a chance to see great science and nature films in the IMAX theater and take part in various specialty programs hosted by Exploration Place.

Chivalry is not dead! At least it's not at the Great Plains Renaissance Festival. Mark your calendars for the second week in October and be there to see knights and fair maidens take over Sedgwick County Park. You'll feel like you've traveled back in time as you explore a medieval village, with authentic costumes on display, antiquated entertainment, and lots of great food and family fun.

The Wichita Grand Opera offers you a chance to see stellar performances like Puccini's Madama Butterfly and local productions like the 10th Anniversary of There's No Place Like Home in a first-class venue that features stunning acoustics and equally compelling production values. You and your date will enjoy getting close to one another while enjoying the operatic masterworks that are unfolding in front of you on your romantic rendezvous.
