About this Event
Join us to explore the incredible systems that connect us to the world around us! How do our brains and bodies interact with nature and the environment? What role does science play in understanding the urban ecosystems we live in? Discover these answers and more at this exciting event!
We invite families and community groups to learn how the human body and brain work in harmony with the environment through hands-on activities and unique scientific resources.
This month’s theme is "Science and the City," and we’re celebrating Earth Day with a fun and educational exploration of how science helps us thrive in our cities and beyond!
Saturday Science is generously supported by funds from Apple Bank and the NSF AI Institute for Artificial and Natural Intelligence (ARNI).
This event is free and open to the public. Register now to guarantee entrance.

Tickets are limited, so please only register if you plan on attending! If you register but cannot attend, we ask that you release your tickets in a timely fashion so another young scientist has the opportunity to join us.
Children must be accompanied by an adult. Content is geared toward elementary and middle school students, but learners of all ages are welcome. Guests can arrive at any time between 1 and 4 pm.
Photography: On occasion, we photograph or video Saturday Science for promotional and archival purposes. When registering for the event at Jerome L. Greene Science Center, you give Columbia University in the City of New York the right to use you and your child's image for said purposes. We will never use your names, age or other identifying factors.
