The CCI is once again hosting its very popular “Snow in Texas” booth at Explore UT, the biggest open house in Texas. Come visit us in the parking lot outside the Larry R. Faulkner Nanoscience and Technology building on Saturday, March 3, 2012. You can make (and take home!) your own polymer snow, and learn about what makes polymers so bouncy, stretchy, gooey and strong. You can also tour the inside of the Nanoscience building to view specialized equipment that our scientists use to move tiny particles and make microscopic patterns.

Last year more than 500 kids, families, students and teachers made their own Snow in Texas with the CCI. Join us again for more snowy fun!

Date: Saturday, March 3, 2012

Time: 11:00 am – 3:00 pm

Location: Parking lot next to the Larry R. Faulkner Nanoscience and Technology Building (FNT) on the University of Texas at Austin campus
