What we do

Art of STEM Festival Packages

Launch with a half-day of hands-on interactive training that gives your educators, mentors & volunteers the “aha” learning experience. Next day – while learning is still fresh- teachers build momentum as they co-host an Art of STEM Festival for students. This unique “model classroom” motivates, builds confidence, and transfers learning directly back to classrooms, camps & clubs.

Your Art of STEM Festival package includes an All Access Pass to the International STEM League and Art of STEM Resource Site filled with math, science & STEM content to use at your site!

NOTE: This video is an excellent, entertaining PBS special and very long!

Our educational team held its first official Art of STEM Festival in Charlotte, NC, USA back in 2012! Since then, events have travelled to schools, nonprofits, corporate events, race tracks, and embassies.

What out Partners say

From elementary school events to full-scale traveling tours, Art of STEM staff has worked with schools, nonprofits, and corporate partners in 42 U.S. States & seven countries.

“The event was amazing. Children did not want to leave. All of the stations were so engaging and welcoming. We had the best experience and understand that must have taken countless hours of preparation and planning. “

Angela Tatum, Russell-Sage College 2022

“I started as a volunteer and ended up working for INSL. The experience of training with Art of STEM gave me enough confidence to keep doing STEM and working with math and science students after that first Charlotte event.”

Wayne Stripling, International STEM League 2025

“Thank you for making the whole thing so much fun. Planning was fun. The workshop was fun, and our teachers really enjoyed the festival. We’re applying for a grant to do this next year. Keep your fingers crossed.”

Brittany Coleman, Urban League St. Louis 2023
