Spring Into the Skies!

We held our annual PNC Community Day at Whitaker Center on Thursday, April 17, from 5–7 p.m., where visitors enjoyed an evening of free family-friendly fun!
Hundreds of guests explored the exciting PNC Innovation Zone, engaging in interactive, hands-on experiences that sparked creativity and curiosity. Kids of all ages (and kids at heart) stepped into the Above and Beyond Traveling Exhibit, a high-flying adventure that takes you to the limits of aerospace innovation. We loved seeing our guests get hands-on with an engaging STEAM activity, dive into the wonders of our Science Center, and capping off the evening with our free movie showing.

  • PNC Innovation Zone Fun (for ages 10+)
  • Above And Beyond Traveling Exhibit
