Presenter Liason- Taste of Science San Antonio Chapter

Kids get plenty of science festivals - so we make something for adults, for them to play.

Taste of Science is an annual festival and event series dedicated to bringing scientists out of the lab, in from the field and away from their computers to meet with non-specialist audiences in their favorite places. We are a national organization with community roots. Those involved are hardworking, creative and passionate people dedicated to making science more accessible to everyone.

As a volunteer you would be working to connect your local community with the exciting and valuable research being carried out at institutions in your city. You would help to organize events to make science more accessible to all and hopefully have some fun in the process!

We want to engage people where they enjoy going to hang out. This might be their favorite brewery, or a family friendly event at a park.

taste of science Presenter Liaisons help to:

• Find presenters with the help of the rest of the team
• Contact presenters to recruit
• Explain the nature of the event/festival to presenters
• Confirm presenter participation and dates available
• Follow up to check if they have any specific requirements for the event
• Be in contact with the city coordinator, event coordinator, social media coordinator, and web manager

Although this is a remote position, because our events require knowledge of our local community, we are looking for volunteers in the San Antonio area.
