The Bay Area Science Festival, now in its 10th year, is an annual celebration of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Organized by the Science and Health Education Partnership at UCSF, the Festival features hundreds of online activities, provocative conversations and virtual tours of cutting-edge facilities, all designed to connect residents with the region’s scientists and engineers.
The festival runs from Oct. 21-25. We will feature picture books with a science connection during our live storytimes. Also join us online for STEM workshops aimed at elementary school-age audiences that explore basic science, engineering, math and technology topics.
