The Cambridge Science Festival, the first of its kind in the United States, is a celebration showcasing the leading edge in science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM).  A multifaceted, multicultural event, the Festival makes science accessible, interactive and fun, highlighting the impact of STEAM in all our lives.

Based out of the MIT Museum, we are a tiny team organizing the annual 10-day, 250+ event festival (in a typical year!) with a robust group of some of the most intelligent scientists, generous sponsors, creative non-profits, dedicated volunteers, and curious university students in the world!

For the 2021 Festival, as social distancing was in place as we began to emerge from the pandemic,  we celebrated STEAM in our community with an overarching theme of gratitude and appreciation for science! During the month of April 2021, we showcased creative digital and virtual entries from our rich STEAM community, offered live events daily, and celebrated with public displays.
