It’s Full STEAM Ahead at Annmarie

Preschoolers and their families can learn and experience so many wonderful things at the free family event, Full STEAM Ahead, from 1 to 4 pm Sunday, July 9, 2017, at Annmarie Sculpture Garden and Arts Center in Solomons.

Bring the whole family for hands-on investigations and incredible challenges made for preschoolers. The July 9 program will be “Saltwater vs. Freshwater.”

Other dates for Full STEAM Ahead this year are Aug. 13, Oct. 8, and Nov. 12.

Annmarie Garden invites preschool children and their caretakers to visit the artLAB for hands-on investigations and challenges. This free program is designed to help children explore, observe, ask questions, and make predictions as they create and play.

Parents and caregivers can join in on the fun, helping kids light up their imaginations and feel the excitement of learning. The programs are designed to plant the seeds of science, technology, engineering, and math learning for kids who are close to starting school, but not quite there yet.

There’s no need to register for the event. Admission is free. If you are bringing a large number of kids, or you’re a moms’ club with a big group, let Annmarie Garden know you’re coming by emailing [email protected] so AMG can be ready to have all the supplies needed.

The Full STEAM Ahead programs are funded by a grant from PNC Grow Up Great! For information, visit the Annmarie Garden website or call 410-326-4640.
