Celebrate National Engineers Week! Engage in some everyday engineering as you construct and create with repurposed and recycled materials. Each day we will explore different engineering concepts with sailmobiles, bridge building, and cup towers. Monday, February 21 - FULLY BOOKED!
Everyday Engineering: SailMobiles
Drop-in 10:00am-2:00pm, Indoors
Is it a car? Is it a sailboat? Design a way to harness the power of wind as you construct a simple vehicle that’s part car, part sailboat! Continue your engineering explorations at home with our take-home activities sheet. National Engineers Week is sponsored in part by Raytheon Technologies.
