The third annual State of Science continued our tradition of celebrating the local scientists, doctors, technologists and innovators. Like many events in 2020 it was virtual. It was kicked off by world-renowned artist Janet Echleman who recently installed her work at the St. Petersburg Pier.
Following Ms. Echleman were five lightning round presentations from innovators at USF's College of Marine Science and College of Arts and Sciences, Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital, and Poynter Institute.

The District's favorite annual event - State of Science and Innovation - is coming up quickly. Be sure to reserve your complimentary ticket. This event features a series of fast-paced presentations by local innovators.
The St Pete Science Festival is looking for volunteers and exhibitors to participate in the February 7 School Day and February 8 Public Festival. This regional celebration of the wonders of hands-on science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM) is a fun event for all ages.
Kudos to our friends at the USF College of Marine Science for hosting their third Art and Science night. They welcomed artists to explore the marine science labs, do hands on experiments, and talk to local scientists about their work. Their goal was to inspire new pieces of art which will be showcased in an exhibit in early 2025.
