Join Greater Cleveland STEM Foundation for second annual CleSTEM Festival Oct. 19; volunteer opportunities available

The Greater Cleveland STEM Foundation is presenting its second annual CleSTEM Festival on Saturday, October 19, at Baldwin Wallace University!

The purpose of the festival is to inspire to bring professionals, students, innovators, parents, and curiosity-seekers to explore STEM and learn about fact-based science in a fun, interactive, and festive environment. With interactive display booths and demonstrations, and presentations given by STEM professionals, attendees will gain a better understanding of the STEM fields, the scientific method, and evidence-based scientific facts. This year, the theme is “The Future Relies on Facts.” We developed this theme because credible and reliable facts are essential for making decisions on current issues and future policies that affect our daily lives.

Attendance and parking is FREE and no registration is required. Festival runs from 10am to 4pm in BW’s Strosacker Hall.

We are also looking for volunteers!
