CU Wizards

John Taylor and Larry Green

CU Wizards is an entertaining and informal introduction to science with shows geared towards enthusiasts in fifth through ninth grades. This year we’ve added new shows from the Psychology, Math, and Atmospheric and Ocean Sciences Department. Shows are the third or fourth Saturday of each month and take place on the CU Boulder Campus. CU Wizards begins at 9:30 a.m. and lasts approximately one hour.
