This April, explore open-ended creativity through hands-on artmaking!  

Join us this April for a hands-on STEAM series where creativity meets science, engineering, and design! Each Saturday features rotating stations that invite participants to experiment, build, and explore using simple materials in innovative ways. These sessions are process-based and flexible — participants may move between stations at their own pace, dive deeply into one project, or sample a variety of activities. 

Designed for all ages, April’s series blends artful making with real-world STEM concepts including light reflection, structural tension, motion, balance, and prototyping. 

This session invites participants to explore how light behaves through hands-on mirror investigations and symmetry-based art. Makers will experiment with reflection angles, radial patterns, and kaleidoscopic design while building decorative mirror frames and geometric mandalas. Through playful exploration, participants discover the science of light and the math behind balanced design. 

Stations include: 

• Reflection Frame Design 

• Symmetry Mandala Studio 

• Kaleidoscope Exploration Lab 

STEAM Saturdays are offered seasonally from October through April and are fun for the whole family. No need to pre-register, just bring your curiosity!

Morning Session: 10:30am - 11:00am

Afternoon Session: 2:00pm - 2:30pm
