Welcome to Full STEAM Ahead!

This series of free classes spans four sessions, with each session focused on the science behind a different area of art – photography, ceramics, mobiles, and metalworking. This class is part of a local Girl Scout Gold Award Project by Rowan Dothager. 

This free after-school class, appropriate for students in 5th through 8th grade, meets on Tuesdays from 4 to 5pm, March 26th, and April 2nd, 9th, and 16th.
