Everything is Science: Present!

Everything is Science, Lexington’s city-wide science festival, returns for its fifth year with an exciting new theme: It’s About Time!

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.

Everything is Science: It’s About Time! will take place February 20-24, 2023, from 6-8 pm each day. All events are free and open to the public.
