You can send us your proposals for lectures, workshops, demonstrations, exhibitions, artistic events and other activities promoting science from 17 February to 31 March.
The upcoming 9th edition of the Silesian Science Festival Katowice will take place from 6 to 8 December 2025, and this time the slogan is: Let’s experiment! Proposals can be submitted for a completely new type of activity, through which we want to inspire representatives of all fields of science to experiment – to combine the extremes, to look for unconventional solutions, and to look at science from a different point of view than before. We look forward to seeing how creative and daring you can be!
