2015 Emerge Artists + Scientists Re Design the Future


ASU Emerges 2015: Artists + Scientists Re-Design the Future






Each year Skysong ASU - http://skysongcenter.com - hosts an innovation evening. We spent 2 1/2 hours surrounded by science and arts, robots, hands-on projects, interactive presentations, and lectures. NPR RadioLab's co-host Jad Abudram hosted an interactive presentation out under the stars sharing how RadioLab works and it's history as if it was a RadioLab story. There were demonstrations from NASA, ASU's Robotics Lab, and others. This is an event worth adding to your calendar and following throughout the year.

Geeks Night Out - Tempe AZ

Geeks Night Out in Tempe is a wonderful annual S.T.E.A.M event



Geeks Night Out in Tempe is a great geeky family tradition as downtown Tempe hosts an evening of activities in science, technology, engineering, arts, and math for geeks of all ages and interests. The City of Tempe teamed together with Arizona SciTech Festival (http://azscitech.com) to create an interactive evening spread around the downtown mall. While this event is over there are more S.T.E.A.M events throughout the rest of the month including the SouthWest Makerfest (SouthwestMakerFest.com), Emerge 2015: Artists + Scientists Redesign the Future, and Science Night at the Phoenix Zoo. These are just a few of the excellent STEAM events that I enjoy exploring with my family.
