Open Call for proposals (Art & Science), British Science Association

Open Call for proposals – Do you have an idea to engage public audiences with science and research?

Anyone can propose an event and the Festival celebrates science in its broadest sense. We are looking for proposals from individuals, researchers, industry professionals, artists, writers, organisations, charities, academic institutions, and more. We aim to programme a range of formats from talks to drop-in activities and creative content that challenges perceptions of what science is and can be. 

The Festival is free and open to all, but content should be appropriate for an adult (16+ audience).

More information, including how to submit a proposal, can be found here: https://www.britishscienceassociation.org/open-call. The deadline for proposals is 23.59 20 January 2025.
