Darwin Day is February 12th, the date of birth of Charles Darwin in the year 1809, at Shrewsbury, England. On this date, and throughout the month, people from all over the world are honoring the life, work and influence of Charles Darwin with events and activities that celebrate science and our shared humanity. Join in the events to celebrate the adventure of science and the 'passion to know' that drives us to inquire, explore and discover what this world is all about. All events are free and open to the public.
