Café KITPCafé KITP is an evening event held at SOhO Restaurant (1221 State Street). It is a "physics café" which starts with a presentation by a speaker (a physicist) and is followed by questions and provocations facilitated by an interlocutor who inspires the audience to engage with the subject and the speaker.
Doors open at 5:00 PM for 6:00 PM event. Food and drink are available and there is no cover charge.
