In conjunction with Hispanic Heritage Month, Science Works will feature dynamic speakers, hands-on activities and one-on-one discussions. Youth and their families can discover what interesting jobs the STEM fields have to offer, see how to turn their passion into a career, and get advice on pursuing a future in STEM.
We will feature our “Fruit & Veggie Oxidation” STEM program. Guests will participate in an interactive board game to hypothesize what solutions may help with slowing down the oxidation process with apples, pears, avocados, and potatoes. After the game, guests will then view each fruit/vegetable inside different solutions.
