Perfect for all ages, this monthly event invites families, friends, and curious minds to explore the world of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) in an engaging, multigenerational setting.
This month’s featured workshop, “Dynamic Dissections: Owl Pellet and Squid Surprises,” offers a unique chance to delve into the wonders of animal anatomy.

These hands-on activities are designed to spark curiosity and provide a memorable learning experience for participants of all ages.
At 7 PM, join renowned local artist Sarah F. Burns for a captivating slide talk on color theory. Sarah will debunk common myths and dive into the science behind color perception, from rich neutrals to vibrant rainbows.
