STEAMfest 2025 — Business Demonstration Invitation

What is STEAMfest?
STEAMfest is an interactive, hands-on event that connects 4th and 5th grade students with real-world applications of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM). Local schools bring over 1,500 4th and 5th grade students to experience engaging demonstrations in STEAM-related fields. The gym is transformed into a dynamic space filled with tables hosted by local businesses and organizations, each offering interactive STEAM demonstrations. Students are free to explore at their own pace—visiting any table that interests them, participating in hands-on activities, and then moving on to the next. To keep the experience engaging and the space manageable, we divide the day into three sessions of approximately 500 students each. The result is a high-energy atmosphere filled with curiosity, creativity, and meaningful interactions.
Why Your Business Should Participate:
- Inspire the next generation: Help students see the exciting possibilities in your industry.
- Build community visibility: Connect with local families, educators, and leaders.
- Develop future talent: Start early in showing young minds how their interests could lead to a fulfilling career.
