Gifted Atlanta

Fernbank Science Center in Decatur has two upcoming programs for young scientists.

First, this Saturday, March 30, from noon to 3 p.m. will be NanoDay. This free event will include a nano magic show and hands-on activities. In addition, the event will have a special activity area for children ages 3 to 7.

Then, on April 5, the science center will host Science Night Out, for students in third to sixth grades. From 6 to 9 p.m., graduate students from Georgia State University will conduct hands-on activities that teach kids about nutrition. Registration is by U.S. Mail only and is $15 per child.

Note: In the interest of avoiding confusion, these events are at the Fernbank Science Center, owned and operated by DeKalb County Schools, not the Fernbank Museum.
