Every year for nearly 30 years, the St. Joseph County Public Library has put on Science Alive, an event where kids get up close to different kinds of science experiments. Because of COVID, this year they had to do something different for safety reasons. Children and their families will not only be experiencing science virtually, but now the event will be running through the entire month of February with different shows and experiments.
