Stanzel Museum Presents Dale Kirn STEAM Day June 29

Area students will have an exciting opportunity to explore science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics this summer during the upcoming Dale Kirn STEAM Days, a free educational event designed to inspire young innovators and inventors.

Scheduled for Monday, June 29 at St. Rose School Gym in Schulenburg and Tuesday, June 30 at Weimar Elementary Cafeteria, the program will offer two sessions each day from 10–11 a.m. and 1–2 p.m. The event is open to students in kindergarten through 8th grade and is limited to 60 participants.
