We The Curious is an idea and a place for everyone. We’re all about asking questions, getting creative and testing things out. Science is collaborative, living and a vital part of culture.
Our venue on Bristol’s harbourside is a bit like an indoor festival, with all sorts of different experiences, where you can interact with exhibits and take part in experiments. It’s where boundaries are removed between science, art, people and ideas.
The Big Screen is situated on the outside of our building, facing onto Bristol’s well-loved Millennium Square. It runs from 7am until 11pm, seven days a week. The screen provides an important city-centre platform for the showcasing of films, videos and live streams by local creatives, communities and school groups.
Recently its shown content by Creative Youth Network, Aardman, RIFE and Vanessa Kissule to name but a few. We also use the screen to show our own content and as a programming space, bringing some of what goes on inside We The Curious outside for even more people to enjoy.
The rest of the time we’re working hard to bring you an exciting and varied programme of events – from family sing-alongs and feature film screenings, to live streamed theatre shows and major sporting events.
