Family STEAM Night: It’s the Season of Light

10/14/21 from 5:30 to 6:45 PM

For this month’s Family Steam night, let’s spend some time with this phenomenon that is all around us – Winter, and our traditional holidays around this time, all seem to involve light in some way or another!

We’ll talk about the nature of light, and some of the cool (and confusing) things about it. After we do that, you will have the chance to build both a periscope AND a kaleidoscope, if you wish. And perhaps hone your hand shadow figure skill!
