Science definitely deserves a celebration now (although it always has), so you are invited to join ISC for our 10th Science Cocktail Party to celebrate science and Chicago’s scientific community.

There will be smart people and interesting people and beautiful people (often the same people), delicious food, beer, wine and our signature science-y cocktail, raffle prizes, plus very cool hands-on science experiments. It’s all in the name of science and fun!

Special THANKS our beer sponsor, Metropolitan Brewing, and our dessert sponsor, Blommer Chocolate. If your company is interested in sponsorship, contact Monica at mmetzler@IllinoisScience.org.
