The Upper East Tennessee Science Fair is an annual event sponsored by the Johnson City Kiwanis Club and ETSU.  Current policies and procedures will allow the fair to be held in the Culp Center on the ETSU Campus.  The fair typically hosts several hundred exhibits submitted by fourth through eighth graders from dozens of schools in the upper east Tennessee region.   

Professional scientists, ETSU faculty, and science educators judge the competition with thousands of dollars in prize money awarded to student winners, their teachers, and to their schools.
