Science & the City is hosted by the non-profit New York Academy of Sciences.
We aim to foster interaction among New York's stellar science and arts communities
and to engage the general public in all that is happening at the intersection
of science and culture in and around our city. Your donation, in any amount,
will help Science & the City continue to produce an exhaustive calendar
of science-related events, weekly podcasts, e-mail newsletters, and science
art galleries. Thank you for supporting Science & the City!
