For nine days in April and May, Cambridge will come alive with exhibits, lectures, and interactive presentations designed to spark public interest in science and technology. The Cambridge Science Festival is presented by the MIT Museum and features over 200 activities for budding scientists of all ages. Most of the activities and events are free.
Here’s a glimpse at this year’s festival:
