The Hands-On Spot

Modern Living Building

Three zones – action, brain and creative – make up The Hands-On Spot. If exercise is good for the body, why wouldn’t it be good for the brain? Come and test your wits in the brain zone with brain teasers, life-size chess and robotics. Maybe you’ve been a couch potato lately and you need to get active. The action zone will test your balance, stamina and hand-eye coordination through several physical activities like Pickleball with the Greater Oklahoma City Pickleball Club or ping pong with the Oklahoma Senior Games. In the creative zone, let loose and find your inner artist, you might surprise yourself with how creative you are.

Friday – Saturday: 10 a.m. – 10 p.m.
