Robert Crown Multipurpose Room

Come hang out with the Rebel STEAMers. Chill with friends, listen to music, and get creative!

Get ready to build...and then try and destroy! 

Wednesday September 18th from 2-3:30PM the Robert Crown multipurpose room is being converted into a YA STEAM space.  Learn about the buildings that make up the Chicago skyline, how they withstand severe weather, and try your hand at making your own!  Buildings will be made from edible materials and will be scored based on appeal and their ability to withstand earthquakes and strong wind. Winners will get bragging rights and a super cool prize. 

For grades 5-9.  Supplies are limited and registration is encouraged but walk-in's are welcome!
