Storytelling RoomExperiment, build, test, and explore with STEMsters! Each session features a new hands-on STEM challenge for grades K-5. Registration required for each participant.
Get ready to experiment, build, test, and explore with STEMsters! On select days throughout October, November, and December, STEMsters will lead a series of hands-on STEM challenges designed to make science, technology, engineering, and math fun and accessible.
Each session will feature a different activity and challenge, giving young scientists and engineers the opportunity to make predictions, test ideas, solve problems, and learn from the results. From exploring motion and sound to designing, building, and testing, every program offers a new way to discover how STEM concepts work in the real world.
Programs will be led by rising high school seniors from STEMsters, a student-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to inspiring and educating children through engaging STEM activities.
Programs are for grades K–5. Children under age 10 must have a guardian present for the duration of the program. Registration is required for each participant.
