Too Cool For School: Art & Science Fair Call for Submissions

Got a very interesting call for submissions via Sally McKay today. It's for Too Cool for School: Art and Science Fair which will take place at Harbourfront Centre in Toronto on May 8, 2010. According to McKay,

The Too Cool For School Art & Science Fair is an interdisciplinary project in which people from all walks of life come together in a convergence of art and science.The event is structured just like a school science fair participants will display their projects on rows of tables, and will be on hand to discuss their work with the public. The difference is that this event is as much about art as it is about science. Participants will be selected from an open call for submissionson the basis of originality, depth of inquiry, creative innovation and the element of surprise.

The deadline for submissions is March 26, and all "dreamers and inventors, original thinkers and adventurous tinkerers, mad scientists and misunderstood artists, anyone with an over-active imagination and a love/hate relationship with the so-called "real world"" are welcome to apply. (Some of the "winners" will be asked to develop their project further for a fall 2010 exhibition. Break out the ribbons!) Visit www.artandsciencefair.ca to find out more.
