    • This popular annual event features 25 "hands on" activities for youth. MU graduate students offer demonstrations about animal science, art, health, engineering, biology, computers, language, and many other topics. Targeted for grades 2-6, but the interactive exhibits hold interest for all family members! Simple take-home projects and give away items reinforce youth learning, while adults are invited to ask graduate students about research projects and graduate study.
