WeatherFest is an interactive science and weather fair for weather enthusiasts of all ages. Children and parents are invited to come to WeatherFest to see weather-related demonstrations, participate in hands-on activities, and even give the weather forecast in front of an actual television green screen! There will be games, give-aways, and more! Make plans to bring your children to this fun, educational, and engaging event. Hosted by the American Meteorological Society.
What is WeatherFest?
WeatherFest is an interactive four-hour science and weather fair designed to instill a love for math and science in children of all ages and to spark a young person’s interest in this area so they may consider a career in these and other science and engineering fields. This event provides a unique opportunity for your organization to reach a targeted audience of weather enthusiasts and to support education and outreach for the atmospheric and related sciences. The event is free to exhibit and free to attend!
