Science at the KITP addresses questions at the very frontiers of fundamental knowledge, provoking new questions, passions, and sometimes fierce debate. We invite you to spend time with some of the world’s leading physicists, sharing refreshments and conversation about emerging ideas on how the universe began, the role of dark matter, how the stars and planets are formed, or how the brain works.
Friends of KITP creates educational and entertaining opportunities for members of the community to engage with renowned scientists. If you enjoy learning, community engagement and intellectual challenge, you will find an annual membership in Friends of KITP to be immensely rewarding.
If you're interested in joining Friends, here are some helpful things to know:
- Couples may join with a single membership.
- Employees of educational (teaching) institutions may join any Circle for a gift of half the regular amount (please let us know your affiliation).
- Your annual gifts are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law.
