Kites for Kids

Sat., May 18
10 am–3 pm
Free with general admission

Carnegie Science Center teams up with KidsVoice , a leader among Allegheny County child advocacy organizations, to celebrate Kites for Kids on Sat., May 18. From 10 am–3 pm, visitors will soar through hands-on demonstrations featuring games, crafts, and other kite-flying themed activities. In addition, the Science Center will be adorned with hundreds of KidsVoice client-decorated kites to symbolize hope, a happy childhood, and a chance to soar.

KidsVoice advocates for 3,000 children each year in courtrooms, classrooms, and everywhere a child’s voice should be heard – including beyond the traditional child welfare and juvenile court arenas. KidsVoice advocates for clients to address legal issues across the entire range of physical, medical, educational, housing, brain- and language-development needs that arise for children from birth to age 21.
