Join us for a 4-hour citizen science sprint! The Acts of Science Sprint, led by SciStarter Ambassadors, is a fast-paced, interactive event where you’ll explore a variety of citizen science projects—guided live by SciStarter Ambassadors.

Whether you stay for one project or power through multiple hours, you’ll be making an impact! Learn how to monitor wildlife, analyze space data, track environmental changes, and more—no prior experience needed. Drop in anytime, meet our Ambassadors, and challenge yourself to complete as many acts of science as possible! Projects scheduled to be featured: Cloudspotting on Mars, Reading Emotions, WeDigBio, iNaturalist, eBird, Project Sidewalk, Woodpecker Cavity Cam, Stall Catchers An afternoon sprint is also scheduled for 12pm-2:30pm EDT on the same day.
