There were over 20 local exhibitors at the carnival, filling up the halls at Intercity Shopping Centre.
Science North held its annual Science Carnival on Saturday and Intercity Shopping Centre, which aims to inspire people, and spark their love for science at an early age.
“What we have here are people who do science showcasing their science in really fun hands-on ways. We've partnered with Lakehead University's research and innovation group, and they're showcasing some of the research that they do, and then we have a main stage that has live music and science demonstrations going on. Beyond that we have tons of different community groups and organizations showcasing all the cool science they do with hands-on exhibits and activities.
“We're only about 40 minutes in and we've already had about 400 people assembling into the mall for this, so we expect we're going to see thousands of people today,” Kerton said.“Getting people excited about science, especially at a young age, we have seen the research and it shows that the younger they are and more excited about science, the more likely they're going to follow a career pathway into the sciences in the future.
Kerton said part of Science North’s work is to ensure that science is accessible for everyone across all of Northern Ontario.
