Come one, come all to the Sonoran Science Academy Spring Festival | Events

The Sonoran Science Academy-Tucson (SSA) is inviting the community to their annual Spring Festival on April 6. 

There is guaranteed to be a little something for everyone in the family from bouncing in the inflatables, racing around in human spheres or playing in the silly string arena.  There will even be a Food Truck Round Up, for the foodies in the group.  Or for the animal lovers, the Reid Park Zoo will have an animal encounter set up from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. 

For the smaller guests there will be a critter show, put on by Truly Nolen at 5 p.m. with a tour of the mouse limo as well.  Or if bugs aren’t their thing how about a musical puppet show, hosted by Puppet Muzik. 

On site will also be the U of A Cancer Center’s skin analysis machine, and free child fingerprinting by the Pima County Sheriff’s Department. 

Opening ceremonies start at 4 p.m. with Boy Scouts of America and their special guests for the afternoon the Tucson Honor Flight.  Proceeds from this event will benefit the SSA’s Parent Association.
