Saturday Science: Manhattanville Community Day

Join us for Manhattanville Community Day to celebrate what brings us together as humans—connection! How does your heart race when you're excited? What role do your brain and body play in forming emotions and bonds with others? Discover the answers to these fascinating questions at this interactive community event!

We invite families and neighbors of all ages to explore the amazing systems of the human body that help us connect, through hands-on activities and engaging scientific demonstrations.

Celebrate community, connection, and curiosity with us—we can’t wait to see you there!

Saturday Science is generously supported by funds from Apple Bank and the NSF AI Institute for Artificial and Natural Intelligence (ARNI).
