The Detroit Festival of Books is delighted to announce that this year’s Bookfest will feature programming from the Michigan Science Center.
Bookfest, now in its seventh year, features hundreds of booksellers, authors, artists, and sellers of antiquarian items, in Detroit’s beautiful Eastern Market. The addition of Mi-Sci furthers Bookfest’s goal to be an event for individuals of all ages.
Mi-Sci’s activities for kids at Bookfest will include:
- Invisible Ink: a live science demonstration where participants discover how oxygen reacts with vitamin C and lemon juice. The addition of heat causes the “ink” to oxidize, rendering children’s name or message visible on the paper.
- Improve Your Memory: A collection of games promoting both memory and physical fitness with LEGO® DUPLO® blocks.
“To say we are thrilled to feature the Michigan Science Center at Bookfest is an understatement,” said Ryan M. Place, founder and chairman of Bookfest. “The 2024 Bookfest will be the best yet!”
The Detroit Festival of Books will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday, July 21. Admission is free. Photos of the 2023 Bookfest are available for download and use via this link.
