STEAM Saturdays invite 2nd to 6th grade students and their caregivers to explore the exciting worlds of science, technology, engineering, art, and math through hands-on activities. Taking place on the second Saturday of each month, each program features a new theme, from bridges and roller coasters to the possibilities of 3-D printing.
Free with museum admission; registration is strongly encouraged.
A special thank you to our sponsor MiTek.
