In Kielce on June 7, 2019, CHEM-NIGHT festival will be held under the slogan “Unusual chemistry of ordinary things”, organized by the Institute of Chemistry of the Jan Kochanowski University (UJK) in Kielce.

The goal of the event is to popularize science among the local community through participation in lectures, workshops and chemical demonstrations. Nine thematic laboratories will be available, in which participants will be able to carry out their own experiments.

Under the supervision of the institute’s employees and students, participants will discover “chemistry from the kitchen”. They will find out where to find and how to identify some interesting substances and what phenomena are part of the everyday objects.

Also, they will be able to prepare natural cosmetics, glycerine soaps and sparkling baths and learn about the composition of food.
