Don't Burst Their Bubble! Bubble Days are Here..

The Maryland Science Center will be bursting with excitement on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, July 14 through 16, 2006, when it celebrates grand globules of floating foam during Bubble Days. The three-day celebration will feature effervescent events like a big bubble blowing contest, and performances of "Bubblemania" by comic and bubble-artist Casey Carle.

Visitors can bounce by the Big Bubble Blowing Contest throughout the day on all three days on the Inner Harbor Promenade to compete to see who can blow Baltimore's best bubble.

"Bubblemania," a show performed by world bubble champion Casey Carle includes balancing bubbles, bubble hats, bubble jewelry, square bubbles, and bubbles by request as Carle takes cues from the audience to blow bubbles with everything from shoes to stuffed animals and food items. Carle will perform "Bubblemania" at noon, 2:00 and 4:00 pm on each day.

The Maryland Science Center is located at 601 Light Street at Baltimore's Inner Harbor. For information and tickets, visit www.marylandsciencecenter.org or call the 24-Hour Information Line at 410-685-5225.
