At this free community event, we bring scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, thinkers and tinkerers — and all kinds of innovative minds together to share their work with people interested in STEAM subjects (science, technology, engineering, arts, math).

This gathering is part of our efforts to break down the walls between science and the general public, and inspire the next generation of leaders and innovators.

More than 300 people of all ages joined us for our symposium last fall!
This fall, presenters include Harvard University’s Latanya Sweeney on Data Security, Google's Fernanda Viégas & Martin Wattenberg on Mapping Winds, MGH’s Yael Arbel on the Neuroscience of Learning, a BoseBuild demo & tech talk, the MIT media Labs Nabeel Gillani on Tribalism on Twitter, InMoov, the worlds first 3Dprinted robot, and Andrea Yodsampa of DeployUS on reaching across the isle and bringing conservative leadership to climate change and clean energy.

(See below for a full list of presenters.)

Maker stations will include Virtual Reality and Architecture challenges, electronic arts, wood working, a data security game, biochemistry experiments in our science lab, an improv music jam, and more.

We hope that you and your family can join us on October 19.

Invite your friends and colleagues to come as well!
