WestFest: Science and Sustainability Festival

WestFest, the science and sustainability festival hosted by the STEM Impact Collaborative at The Ohio State University together with partners across campus and throughout the Central Ohio community, will take place Monday, October 11th through Saturday, October 16th. We are excited to bring together a six-day virtual event in 2021 - with programs for youth, families, and adults.

This year will feature an event passport, available both online and at local libraries. Youth can attend virtual events, complete four passport challenges, and submit their passport to be entered to win WestFest prizes.  Thanks to funding from the Ohio State Energy Partners, a limited supply of free take-home activity kits will beavailable at local libraries and through community partners.

The event schedule, registration information, event passport, and details about where you can pick-up and activity kit are available online at go.osu.edu/Westfest.

Live captioning will be provided for all virtual WestFest events. If you require additional accommodations, such as interpretation, to participate in any events please contact westfest@osu.edu.
