Upcoming

​​The Curiosity Carnival celebrates the fundamental drive of Curiosity by empowering children to explore, wonder and experiment. The carnival embodies 'learning through play,' engaging children in hands-on, fun-filled activities that make learning an adventure. We aim to bring together children, researchers, educators, parents, and practitioners to create a culture of inquisitiveness and innovation.

 Outreach 

At the Curiosity Lab, outreach is more than just events—it's about igniting curiosity in every mind we touch. Through conferences, confluences, workshops and walks, we bring the science of curiosity to life for people of all ages. From kids asking their first “why” to adults rekindling their wonder, our outreach initiatives are designed to make curiosity contagious.
