Kids of all ages and families are invited to an evening of hands-on activities celebrating Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). This floating event is free and open to the public, and everyone is invited to explore at their own pace.

We will offer several hands-on activities including:

  • Fossil finders
  • Flying machines
  • Sticking together matters
  • Binary keychains
  • Light-up nametags
  • Making slime

This event is hosted in conjunction with the North Carolina Science Festival.
