What can seem like an intimidating topic is, in reality, quite relatable — from the moment we wake up in the morning, science is happening all around us — at every moment in time. Making science accessible in a fun and interactive way is essential in helping people feel more connected to science and the city of Lexington as a whole.
Speakers aim to bring an uncomplicated approach to topics that we may not initially consider science-related.
All events are free and open to the public. No registration is required.
