Diversity, Equity and Human Rights Art Gala

 

The mission of Scientists in School - www.scientistsinschool.ca - is to ignite scientific curiosity in children so that they question intelligently; learn through discovery; connect scientific knowledge to their world; are excited about science, technology, engineering and math; and have their interest in careers in those fields piqued. The vision is every Canadian child actively engaged in the seeing, and doing and understanding of science.

Contact Conrad or president Carol to stake claim to one of these magnificent opportunities.
