About
We The Curious (previously At-Bristol or "@Bristol") is a science and arts centre and educational charity in Bristol, England. It has over 200 interactive exhibits, is home to the UK’s first 3D Planetarium and hosts over 300,000 visitors a year. Their charitable mission is "to connect and empower people through sharing creative experiences which celebrate unknowns in science". Every year they welcome thousands of visitors to their venue on Bristol harbourside, including schoolchildren, young people, community groups and other local charities and not-for-profits. They also work with local partners and schools to offer out and about activities, work experience programmes and bespoke opportunities for individuals who wouldn't normally feel like science is for them. The centre was closed for over two years following a fire and consequent water damage in 2022, but reopened on 2 July 2024.
