On the last day of the 2026 North Carolina Science Festival, we want to share our deepest appreciation with everyone who celebrated this year’s theme, “Science Matters!”

From the mountains to the coast, hundreds of events spanning areas of STEAM brought hands-on, exciting, and awe-inspiring initiatives to thousands of participants. With the help of incredible partners, sponsors, scientists, and attendees, we’re proud to have played a part in spreading the love of science across the state. Thank you, North Carolina. See y’all in 2027!

NCSciFest is generously presented by RTI International.
