The South Side Science Festival, now in its second year, invites the community to engage with University of Chicago scientists through panels, experiments, and demonstrations. The festival aims to integrate the institution into the community, fostering inclusivity in STEM careers. With a focus on making science accessible to all ages, the event features panels on topics like clean water and quantum physics, providing opportunities for learning and networking. The festival's broader goal is to inspire interest in STEM careers and connect individuals with the university's year-round free programs. The event, scheduled for September 30 at the University of Chicago's Hyde Park Campus, is designed to be a fun and engaging Saturday for families and individuals alike.
