dbpprop:abstract
  • Science Oxford (SO) is a modern science gallery in Oxford, England. Set up and managed by the Oxford Trust, it is the scientific equivalent of an arts centre. It: encourages the pursuit of science and enterprise; makes science an integral part of the cultural life of Oxfordshire; provides a focal point for the engagement between the scientific community and the public; encourages young people to become scientists, technicians and engineers; is socially inclusive, engaging audiences not traditionally interested in science; improves understanding of the science-society relationship; contributes to the economic growth of Oxfordshire. In September 2005, phase one of Science Oxford opened in St Clement's providing for the first time a central Oxford home for its public engagement work, including the annual Festival of Science and Hands On (previously Curioxity), its interactive activities for schools and families. Science Oxford provides a venue that brings scientists and the public together in a unique and stimulating environment. The longer term plan is for Science Oxford to be located in a new building in Oxford's West End providing an alternative scientific image for the historic city of Oxford.
