I'm organising this big art & science event. If you know of anyone who might like to participate, please spread the word! Call for submissions is now open. -Sally
Art & Science Fair
Harbourfront Centre, Toronto, May 8, 2010
The Too Cool For School Art & Science Fair is an interdisciplinary project in which people from all walks of life come together in a convergence of art and science. The event is structured just like a school science fair — participants will display their projects on rows of tables, and will be on hand to discuss their work with the public. The difference is that this event is as much about art as it is about science. Participants will be selected from an open call for submissions on the basis of originality, depth of inquiry, creative innovation and the element of surprise.
Call for Submissions now Open
Deadline March 26, 2010
Calling all dreamers and inventors, original thinkers and adventurous tinkerers, mad scientists and misunderstood rtists, anyone with an over-active imagination and a love/hate relationship with the so-called "real world" — we want to meet you and your pet project at the Too Cool For School Art & Science Fair.
Find out how to participate – visit the project website at www.artandsciencefair.ca
Also coming soon:
Too Cool For School Art & Science Exhibition
York Quay Galleries at Harbourfront Centre, Fall 2010
Five participants from the Art & Science Fair will be chosen to develop their projects further for this exciting exhibition that will continue to expand the dialogue between art and science.
Find out more, visit our community blog and get inspired.
Too Cool For School is part of Fresh Ground new works, Harbourfront Centre’s national commissioning programme. The project has two components. The first is the Art & Science Fair on May 8, 2010 in Harbourfront Centre’s Brigantine Room. The second is an exhibition of select projects curated from the fair, to be held in the fall of 2010 in Harbourfront Centre’s York Quay Galleries.

Sadly, some of the best ideas are already taken:
I love that website.
This looks like just about the funnest art event ever.
I was a huge science fair nerd in middle school, only with 'social science' projects. My grade 6 project was called "The Perils of Popularity". I made buttons and graphs in CorelDRAW 2. Super high-tech!
I hope you make a submission Megan. The Perils of Popularity sounds great. In grade six I made a public speech called "Peer Pressure." It was good! I did voices. For my science fair project I made Stonehenge out of clay.
