South Side Science Festival

The University of Chicago invites members of the community to explore the fascinating world of science at the first annual South Side Science Festival.

The event will bring the South Side and UChicago communities together for a day of fun outdoor science exploration, inspiring exchanges with faculty and student researchers, live experiments and demonstrations, food, and music. All ages are welcome; no previous registration is necessary.

The public can meet some of the scientists conducting top research on the South Side; talk to grad students about why they chose science, and fire up imaginations around the possibilities of STEM.
