North County

Join us for a night of art and science. Enjoy reviewing art at 4 galleries on Prospect Street in La Jolla, have a glass of wine and chat with local scientists about conservation, neuroscience, marine biology and cell biology. Scheduled as part of the San Diego Festival of Science and Engineering.

I'll Huff and I'll Puff and I'll Blow Your House Down!In this engineering challenge, children help the three pigs by building a well-designed house that will keep them safe from the “big bad wolf.” 

Join us for a screening of Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey! We'll explore the vastness of our universe with Episode 4, "A Sky Full of Ghosts", as Niel deGrasse Tyson explains how the speed of light dictates the limits of our observable universe. Following Cosmos, we’ll take a look at the night sky with a live feed from the telescope on our projector. Speak with a resident astronomer and learn more about all the recent buzz about our solar system and beyond!

The 2016 San Diego Festival of Science & Engineering is very excited to announce that we will highlight a full week line-up of adult science events proving science exploration isn’t just for the kids! Think, Drink, Science welcomes educators, parents, fellow science enthusiasts, and beer lovers to come learn about “beer-ology" - the science behind the brewing process while enjoying delicious Ballast Point beers and appetizers. Take a tour, extract a strand of DNA, and learn about why certain foods taste so good with your beer.

The sky is falling! In this engineering challenge, children will create a device to protect Chicken Little if the sky does begin to fall.
