The project title for 2023-2024 is S.T.E.A.M. Work Makes the Dream Work, a series of art-based vocational programs that will allow participants to learn new skills, improve current skills, and see the connection between art, science, engineering, technology, and math. Participants will work on projects and creations that relate to future careers, and will learn how to make items they can then make on their own to sell or give as gifts.
