LOUISVILLE, KY (April 17, 2025) — Kentucky Science Center invites guests of all ages to celebrate Earth Day with a day full of hands-on learning and environmentally focused activities on Tuesday, April 22. As part of the organization's mission to encourage lifelong learning and environmental stewardship, they are offering special Earth Day programming included with general admission.

Visitors can engage with additional science walkups stationed throughout the building, including activities that highlight sustainability, conservation, and the science behind protecting the planet.
