Upcoming Science ATL Events
Discovery Walk: Decatur
2026-09-12T14:00:00.000Z
Science is all around us, often hidden in everyday places - where we live, where we play, and where we walk. On this docent-guided Discovery Walk through downtown Decatur, you will uncover some of this secret science on a family-friendly 2-3.5 mile route with ten intriguing science stops. Come on out and enjoy the tinge of fall in the air and learn a little science along the way!
Please meet in front of Little Shop of Stories!

Gather your smartest friends (or the luckiest ones) and test your science knowledge! The weather may still be warm, but we're feeling fall come on! Join us to nerd out on a "fall" themed science trivia at Halfway Crooks. The science of falling in love, waterfalls, and - of course - autumn! Part science-y facts and part pop culture romp! Bring your nerdy team together (or bravely play solo) to win ultimate bragging rights—and some real prizes, too.

Critter Crawl: Murphey Candler Park
2026-09-19T14:00:00.000Z
Join us as we launch a new series...Critter Crawl! This walk is especially designed for families with younger children and up to middle school - although anyone and everyone are welcome to enjoy nature with us! We'll be exploring different parks throughout the year with our guide. We'll move at a slower pace so we can pay special attention to clues about the critters that call our parks home. Pawprints! Scat! Feathers! And maybe we'll even find some of the creatures themselves! We can't wait to trek through nature with you!
For our inaugural walk, we'll be meeting at Murphey Candler Park in Brookhaven. This in-town park with a lake and fun trails is home to plenty of critters - mallards, beavers, and more! Join us for this family-friendly nature exploration.

The Story Collider
2026-10-08T23:00:00.000Z
True, personal stories about science come to life! Join us for an intimate evening outdoors at Waller's Coffee to hear science stories from both scientists and non-scientists. You'll hear stories that will make you cry, laugh and everything in between.
If you aren't convinced to come, take it from one of our past attendees who said, "Thank you so, so much for last night's incredible program - I am still riding high from the absolute wonder and elation and delight and soulfulness of the evening. I felt so moved and my heart remains so full after hearing the stories, and I am just over the moon for the magic there. The evening was such a gift."
Information about storytellers coming soon!
