Wow, what a day at Celebrate Science Indiana 2023 on Saturday, October 14. Over 3,300 visitors came and took the opportunity to visit almost 50 exhibitors/presenters. Thank you for visiting. Participants were busy doing wood working, extracting DNA from strawberries, learning about Indiana forests, building computer games, discovering the penguins of Antarctica, making cement, discussing insects, viewing water animals on high-resolution microscopes, learning about microbes and disease, watching a live stream of the eclipse, “meeting” farm animals and much, much more. It is always a pleasure to see the excitement on young people’s faces as they explore and learn about new things.

Celebrate Science Indiana is held every October and takes pride in working with other education minded organizations, agencies, and individuals to make the event happen. Thank you, exhibitors/presenters, for sharing your enthusiasm for all science related fields.

An event of this size requires financial support. Celebrate Science Indiana is grateful to our many sponsors. They have been very supportive of Celebrate Science Indiana, and many have been associated with Celebrate Science Indiana since the first event in 2011. Thank you sponsors and to other financial supporters who contributed to the costs associated with hosting a booth.

Indeed, it was a great day and a great way to gather and celebrate science with family, friends, colleagues, and STEM professionals. See you on Saturday, October 12, 2024, for the 14^th annual Celebrate Science Indiana. Please watch for additional postings.
