A Message from Founder Enrique Gómez
The El Paso Science Festival began with a simple but powerful vision:
Every child deserves the opportunity to experience the excitement of science.
Through hands-on exhibits, inspiring demonstrations, conversations with scientists and engineers, and community collaboration, we are helping young people imagine careers they never thought possible.
Thank you for helping make this vision a reality.
