Manchester Museum we will be hosting the Science Fair over our wonderful galleries, we have approximately 40 bays to show off your research in. We are looking for academics and/or research groups to get involved with our interactive Science Fair. You would be required at the Manchester Museum on Tuesday 14th, Wednesday 15th, March 2023; 10am – 4.00pm. We ask that although staffing of the stands can change; that the actual stands themselves do not change for the two days.
