All ages are invited to participate in fun activities centered around Science, Technology, Engineering and Math at Los Altos History Museum's "Apricot STEM Fair: A Tale of Two Valleys," on Saturday, July 16, 10am-3pm, held in the Museum's courtyard.
STEM activities include robotics demonstrations, engineering a Mars landing with eggs, catapulting apricots, building marshmallow towers, creating photo sensitive art, drawing with fractal colors, making a sundial, games exploring the science and technology of early agriculture, and much more. Rounding out the festivities are workshops on crafting a binary code bracelet, and discovering Fibonacci patterns in nature. Lisa Prince Newman, Author of "For the Love of Apricots," will hold a book signing and conversation about all things apricots, and share her delicious recipes from 10:00-11:30am.
Admission is $7 per person, payable at the gate. Free for ages 12 and under. Materials fee to participate in the workshops is $10 per person. Space is limited for workshops, and advance registration required at losaltoshistory.org. All proceeds from the STEM Fair support the Museum's Permanent Exhibition Capital Campaign.
