It’s full steam ahead for the Iowa City Public Library’s Second Annual STEAMfestival!
Come to the Library on Saturday, May 5, anytime between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. for fun, adventures and activities that encompass all things STEAM: Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics.
Start your adventure at ICPL’s STEAM Engine. Our main floor meeting rooms will be transformed into a train transporting all curious passengers on an expedition of knowledge. Continue your journey outside to the Ped Mall and MERGE, where the National Center for Science Education Science Booster Club, Iowa City Parks and Recreation, the Grout Museum of History and Science, the Iowa Children’s Museum, Green Iowa AmeriCorps, and others will be there with a variety of hands-on activities. Climate change, genetics, wind energy, pressurized rockets and coding are just a few of the topics you’ll explore.
The STEAMfestival @ Iowa City Public Library is made possible with the generous support of the Iowa City Public Library Friends Foundation, HAVlife Johnson County and the Rev. Dr. Barbara Schlachter Memorial Fund.
