In this first class, develop the skills you will need to go out and explore your world. Learn everything from how to use binoculars and cast a fishing pole, to tying knots and making your own DIY bird feeder! By the end of the event, you will walk away a bonafide Texas explorer that’s ready to go out and observe the natural world. Girlstart will host hands-on STEM activities for family members of all ages and genders.

STEM Extravaganza

This February, Girlstart hosted a Valentine’s Day-themed STEM Extravaganza event at the Girlstart STEM Center in Austin, TX. We had 17 volunteers come out and help make this community event a success.

Volunteers led hands-on activity booths, such as designing heart-shaped bubble wands, constructing a gummy heart dome, and creating an LED valentine. Throughout the event, attendees were able to learn about how those activities could translate into actual careers in STEM!

We are so grateful for the time and effort our volunteers put into this event! With their help, Girlstart continues to further our mission of increasing young girls’ interest in STEM!
