STE(A)M Festival Is Back in St. Mary’s

St. Mary’s County Public Schools will host the annual STE(A)M Festival on Saturday, October 28, 2023, at the St. Mary’s County Fairgrounds. The Patuxent Partnership is helping to publicize the popular event that will be held in-person this year.

Festivities will run from 10am to 2pm and will feature fun, food, and phenomena. This year’s theme is “STEM-tertainment,” and the STEAM Festival Committee is excited to begin planning the event and welcoming everyone back to in-person STEAM exploration.

Each year, Maryland designates a month-long celebration of all things science, technology, engineering, and math. This STEM-related exploration takes place through in-person festivals and online events.

Attendees are typically elementary and middle school-aged children and their families.
