Climb aboard a BioBus Mobile Lab at NYCHA Riis Houses Family Day on the Lower East Side (178 Avenue D, St. Mary Magdalen’s Church, New York, NY 10009), where our Community Scientists will show you how to use one of our high-powered microscopes to explore samples of bugs, dirt, water, and other organic matter from your neighborhood! Stop by anytime for a quick 5 minute exploration or stay for 30 minutes (or even the entire event!) for a variety of science experiences.

BioBus events are primarily designed for k-12 students, with a variety of options available based on student age, interests, and experience with science. Families and other scientists have a great time too!
