World Science Festival 2008
2008 was the first run of the World Science Festival, an annual festival meant to cultivate and sustain a general public informed by the content of science, inspired by its wonder, convinced of its value, and prepared to engage with its implications for the future.
WSF08 in New York City was a huge success, and we're working on 09 right now.
