Whether children are designing miniature houses from cardboard, building circuits, painting with natural dyes, or getting to know a live animal, STEAM activities foster children’s curiosity, creativity, and learning as they try things and explore the world around them.

STEAM programming includes experiences like tinkering with circuits and art materials to design a glow bug, working as a team to program a robot, collaborating with a community artist to make a sculpture, creating with art mediums from clay to fabric to paint, or giving feedback to a professional inventor on her new technology.

While our programs may emphasize one or more of the STEAM disciplines, our overarching goal is to offer joyful, multi-sensory STEAM experiences that help children build STEAM habits of mind.

Museum exhibits also support STEAM habits of mind, including Investigate, Bubbles, and Construction Zone, and further encourage imaginative learning in fun environments.

Special monthly programs, such as Kitchen Science and Critter Days with Live Animals, and annual events, including National Engineers Week and Chemistry Day, are also regularly offered at the Museum.

Check the calendar for a list of upcoming STEAM programming.

Create something, solve problems, and explore STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math).

• April activity: Mystery Boxes
• May activity: Mini Parachutes
• June activity: PVC Creations!
