We would like to invite your students to participate in the 1st Annual Lansing Area STEAM EXPO and Silent Auction. Students will compete for prizes by submitting unique, hands-on STEAM projects.
This is an alternative concept to the typical Science Fair, striving to give students a place to exhibit their work alongside entertainment and learning opportunities for the whole family.
Through this exciting approach we help to encourage student exploration and innovation, while developing tomorrow’s leaders.
The STEAM EXPO & Silent Auction will take place at the Advancement Corporation Community Center on Saturday May 20th from 12 to 3:30 pm.
Continued on Sunday May 21st with a final project walk through from 1 to 1:45 pm.
