Scientific Explorations
STEAM Summer in STEAM Lab
Every Saturday from 10–3 p.m.
This is a month for building, shaping, mixing, and transforming—where children bring their ideas to life through hands-on art and design.
Join us Saturdays from 12–3 p.m. for a rotating series of creative experiences:
- August 1: Color Mixing
- August 8: Cyanotypes
- August 15: Clay Play
- August 22: Pop-Up Neighborhood
- August 29: Bead Snakes
Throughout the month, families can also take part in Scavenger Hunts every Saturday from 10 a.m.–3 p.m. Complete a challenge and earn a prize while exploring the museum in new ways.
