Monthly STEM Workshop - The Crossover: How Everyday Transportation Interacts with Engineering 

Join us for our monthly STEM Workshop presented by teen volunteers in Girls Empowered in Math and Science (GEMS)! This one-hour workshop includes a brief presentation explaining the concepts involved in the activities.Happy New Year, and welcome back to GEMS science workshops with The Crossover! We’ll be opening up 2026 with an engineering-based lab exploring the physics and popular structural types behind bridges. Participants will have the opportunity to build miniature models of two widely-used bridge types: the suspension bridge and the straw-truss bridge. Students will also compare the structural integrity between numerous simple structure bridges through paper modeling. Join us this January to close that knowledge gap! Free. No registration required. Recommended for elementary school students. Presented by teen volunteers in Girls Empowered in Math and Science (GEMS).  Special thanks to the Friends' of the Cambrian Library for their generosity!ADA Accommodation Requests
