A festival is a period of celebration, for us that means a month long celebration of science in North Carolina. With so much to cover we need an entire month to do our state science celebration justice. Our goal is to help spread science education through exciting, educational and fun, hands-on science events. The educational, cultural and financial impact of science effects all North Carolinians and we want to make sure that continues through our future generations.
