WCOE Lights On Afterschool Celebration

Free Event!

To celebrate the importance of afterschool programs, the Whitcare College of Engineering Outreach Program is partnering with the Science Spectrum to bring you our Lights On After School Celebration Event! This event will provide numerous engineering, coding, and robotics related activities for families of all ages to engage in. Along with experiencing different forms of engineering through hands-on projects, families will also get to discover the impact of after-school programs and how you can bring one to your school/organization!

This event will be on October 24th, 2024 from 6:00 - 8:00 PM at the Science Spectrum & OMNI Theater. Attendees will also get a discounted rate to explore the Museum at $5.00.
