✨ Last weekend, middle school students had the opportunity to Invent the Future at our Spring GROW Workshop!

Students rotated through four hands‑on sessions—Build an M*F, Rivers in the Landscape, Build & ZOOM, and Microscopic Worlds in a Droplet of Water—exploring science in fun and creative ways. Between learning, activities, and lunch with friends, it was a great day of discovery. We can’t wait to see everyone at our next GROW Workshop!
