UVU Brain Fair
We want to invite parents and their children to attend our nineth annual brain fair on Saturday, April 5th from 10am-12pm at Utah Valley University in the Liberal Arts (LA) building hallway.
The fair will provide an opportunity for children of all ages to learn about the brain, neurons, and our senses through various activity stations set up by UVU undergraduate students under psychology faculty mentorship. This is a great opportunity for parents to engage their children in science education and expand their knowledge about the human brain.
Please refer to the attached flyer for more information about the event, and feel free to contact Claudia if you have any questions.
