In this week’s STEAM we will be celebrating the innovative spirit of The Industrial Revolution! You will be the inventor, designer, engineer, and artist! Let your imagination run wild as you create everything from fun contraptions to Steampunk art! Borrow from the past or jump to the future! YOU are the master of your own project!

Trains, boats, and factories all had one thing in common during the Industrial Revolution – they were all powered by steam! Join us this weekend as we explore what this cutting-edge technology did for society and see how it works in our STEAM programming.

...---... (SOS) is one of the most recognized messages in the world. In this week’s STEAM programming, learn what a telegraph is, what it was used for, and how to send messages with it. We’re also going to learn a little Morse Code as well!

Generators, speakers, headphones, computer hard drives; what do these items have in common? They are all made with electromagnets. In this week’s STEAM program, we will be learning about one of the most widely used inventions of the Industrial Revolution and seeing one in action

In nature, the only animals other than insects that use “true flight” are birds and bats! In this week's STEAM, we will learn the differences in their wings and how they fly. This week’s project will be creating origami (paper folding) birds and bats that flutter when they fly!

What goes up, must come down... but slowly. Create your own model hang glider in this week’s STEAM program, learn the science behind their design, and why they work the way they do.

Whirlybird, gyroplane, eggbeater – all names for this week's STEAM weekend project – Helicopters! Join us as we look at what makes a helicopter fly, then create your own to take home.
