Project Fair: Mark your calendars and get your curiosity flowing - the Somerset Project Fair and STEM night,in partnership with the Works Museum, is coming on February 3rd from 6-8pm! This fun evening for kids of all grades and families will be a mix of hands-on STEM activities and the chance to display a project that YOU make.Projects can be about anything that gets you interested or excited: a science topic, a hobby, oran answer to a question you’ve always wanted to know. Lots of them use a tri-fold board like the examples below, but feel free to break the mold and get creative. Plus, you are welcome to attend and have fun whether you choose to make a project or not! **Please see this week's Somerset E-News for more information!
