WHAT: OHSU/OMSI BRAIN FAIR

We did it!

We found the resources to feed and caffeinate 35 NW Noggin volunteers  –  who brought the real brains and plenty of art projects to OMSI to enthuse, inform and excite about 300 kids and parents over an entire day of BRAIN FAIR!

The Brains at Brain Fair

WHERE: Oregon Museum of Science & Industry, 1945 SE Water Ave, Portland, OR 97214

WHEN: Saturday, March 7, 2020, 9:00am – 5:00pm
(set up 8:30 – 9:30am! Event starts @ 10am)

One of the nation’s largest Brain Fairs is this Saturday at OMSI!

Come join Noggin and the PSU Neuroscience Club for an awesome day of learning! 

The OHSU Brain Institute promises free basic admission to the museum for our volunteers! And OMSI is not easily affordable for many, with “adult” (age 14 and up!) ticket prices at $15  –  and “youth” (age 3 – 13) tickets at $10.50!! Any “special” exhibits cost even more…

NW Noggin will bring the brains to “Brain” Fair, while the Portland Alcohol Research Center (PARC) is providing ALL our terrific volunteers with pizza, snacks and coffee to fuel their noggins!  

WE PRE-ORDERED THE COFFEE (thanks Starbucks!) AND PIZZA (thanks Sparky’s!)

THANK YOU PARC for supporting free arts-integrated STEM outreach! 

(There may also be more homemade “BRAIN COOKIES” from Tara Leake!  –  for our outstanding volunteers :))

See what we’ve done in past years!
