Tesla

Tesla Science Foundation from USA (TSF) and Tesla Science Foundation from Serbia (TNFS) organize each year three conferences and a large number of gatherings and meetings:

Conferences:

• Hotel Newyorker in New York, second or third Saturday in January
• Belgrade, at Ilija M. Kolarac Endowment, first Saturday in June
• Philadelphia, Independence National Historical Park, July 9 and 10
• Philadelphia, Science Festival, last Saturday in April
• Philadelphia, meeting ‘Tesla’s People’ (different dates)

Our mission is for TSF and TNFS to promote Tesla’s science, life and philosophy, and at the same time to recognize organizations and institutions who contribute to the promotion and continuation of Tesla’s work.
In the first part of the Conference we summarize our work results in the period between two Conferences and then other organizations and individuals present their yearly contributions. A large number of artists of different profiles contributed a lot toward understanding Tesla’s life and his large body of work, so it is common for our conferences to present artists. They contributed the most for Tesla to be recongnized as much as he deserves.
The best work, beside getting Tesla medals and certificates, are represented at our exhibition at the New York Conference and some at Belgrade Conference. We are calling you to send your information about your work on time in the area of:

• Science
• Inventing
• Education
• Literature
• Art
• Film
• Drama
• Music
• Animated films

Anything that helps better promotion of NikolaTesla and his work and lead us to the better future. Within 30 days you will be informed if your submission was accepted and for wich conference. People who made the greatest work will be interviewed by TeslaTalk.TV and will be shown on our TeslaTalk.TV youtube channel. Live broadcast of the New York Conference will help a large number of Tesla enthusiasts around the world learn about your work. We will promote your work on our web and social media where we have around 20.000 members.

We are expecting your submissions at nikolalonchar@gmail.com

The Philadelphia Science Festival will return in 2020 to educate, inspire, and engage the region with the science and technology that surrounds our everyday world. Organized and led by The Franklin Institute, in collaboration with 200 of the region’s premier science, cultural, and educational establishments, the Philadelphia Science Festival offers events for families and adults all across the Delaware Valley.

Celebrating the national movement dedicated to demonstrating to girls that engineering is creative and collaborative and how being an engineer can help change and improve our world.

The Franklin Institute joins the initiative to engage girls in all aspects of manufacturing and design and inspire them to consider careers in engineering with a day full of hands-on activities exploring the various branches—including mechanical, electrical, chemical, and more.

Visitors on this day will also have the opportunity to meet local female engineers and understand the significant role they have in shaping our future.

The event is in recognition of National Engineers Week (February 16-22), dedicated to ensuring a diverse and well-educated future engineering workforce by increasing understanding of and interest in engineering and technology careers.

The Franklin Institute is pleased to present Community Nights! Everyone is welcome to join in the fun at these FREE educational and fun-filled science extravaganzas that include The Franklin Institute’s famous permanent exhibits, special programs, and hands-on activities.

STARTING A TESLA CLUB AT YOUR SCHOOL

How can you organize a Tesla Club at your School? How can the Tesla Science Foundation (TSF) help? The first step would be to introduce your students to Tesla’s life and work through classroom presentations or a school assembly, depending on the best fit for your school. TSF would bring a display made by Tesla Museum and TSF and lead the initial presentation.

After that, we will consult with interested students and faculty to prepare a mission statement and organize the club. We have a host of resources for helping you to expand your Tesla Club’s exposure and membership, including:

-A Play: “Tesla Past, Present, Future” for which we already have a script.

-Tesla Traveling Exhibit (obtained by TSF from the Tesla Museum)

-Organizing exhibits for arts, science, literary achievements, and the like (TSF would award medals and certificates for the best work).

-Community evenings could also be organized in partnership with TSF. We could have an exhibit of student work. In addition to students’ families, the school could be open to the community.

-Tesla Clubs would have an opportunity to be on Tesla Talk TV (TSF’s TV channel).

Additionally, student members could become TSF members, where the school clubs would be advertised.

-The best student work would be presented at our January and July Conferences in New York and Philadelphia, respectively.

-We can provide quizzes about the life and work of Nikola Tesla. The best students would get TSF participation certificates.
