A free event exploring careers in creative fields
using science and technology will be offered to Kootenay student-aged youth as part of the National Science Odyssey Campaign.
Creative Thinkers: Artists Thrive with Science & Technology, will take place on Saturday, May 15, at 10 a.m. The event for Kootenay youth, aged 12 to 18-years old, will focus on the significant outcomes when creatives integrate and use STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) to produce their work in an applied art or creative design field.
Creative Thinkers has been developed to engage young people interested in the creative disciplines, but are also science and technology-focused. GLOWS (Growing & Learning Opportunities with STEAM) encourages the next generation to combine elements of art and creative design with STEM-based thinking to become tomorrow’s leaders.
