STEAM
Science knowledge, technology skills, engineering design, art creativity and mathematical reasoning are the cornerstone of modern scientific approaches, and we are here to help you take STEAM from the classroom to the community and beyond.
We’re helping to build Iowa’s future scientists, engineers, and artists to further grow opportunities for both our community and our state.
From STEAM kits that go out into our communities to online, interactive, Iowa place-based virtual field trips, we offer resources and engagement opportunities for students of all ages and skill levels.
STEAM Trailer and Bundles
At no cost to you, we have a trailer full of interactive, hands-on STEAM-based activities that spark curiosity in children. The STEAM trailer travels throughout the state, often visiting libraries or schools. We also have packaged several STEAM activities into bundles that can be reserved. These bundles are provided to you for free and can be a great substitute for a trailer visit. We take reservations year-round for the trailer, the bundles and events. We will accommodate you as staff time allows.
Contact us to make a reservation.
Local Events
We bring fun, interactive STEAM activities to your schools and community events. If you're having a STEM event at your school or in your community, we’d love to be part of it. Contact us to schedule.
