Bringing Science to Life: The Las Vegas Science & Technology Festival Enthralls and Educates the Community

The Las Vegas Science & Technology Festival has kicked off in southern Nevada, running from April 26 to May 4. With over 40 events planned, attendees can experience activities such as exploring the Shark Reef at Mandalay Bay, going behind-the-scenes at the Bellagio Fountains, and participating in a community art workshop at Omega Mart at AREA15. The festival aims to bring science out of textbooks and into the real world, inspiring the next generation of innovators in the community.

The festival provides businesses with a great opportunity to offer resources, activities, and opportunities for youth to learn more about their organization, careers, and the science and technology they use in their daily operations. Alexandra Liebman, director of the Las Vegas Science and Technology Festival, stated that “We are thrilled to be able to provide this platform for businesses to connect with young minds and inspire them to pursue careers in science and technology.”

All events during the festival are free and open to the public, but registration is required due to limited space and availability.

The festival concludes with a Science and Technology Expo at the World Market Center on May 4, where a $1,000 prize will be awarded to the CCSD school with the highest student and family attendance at the Expo.
