California State Science Fair

The California State Science Fair is the final science fair of the academic year for students throughout the State of California in grades 6 - 12, serving California's future scientists since 1952. It is hosted by the California Science Center (formerly, the California Museum of Science and Industry).

Haven't been to the Fair? Here are some of the photographs from the 2012 Fair and the 2011 Fair taken by our photographer (and by some participants as well). For the historically-minded, here's a short photo essay using photographs taken nearly twenty years ago. Or watch the Awards Ceremonies again, just as they were then Webcast live from the Fair.
