Experiment and Explore Junior

Let’s conduct an experiment!

Join our junior science fair! Kids will learn about the scientific method and the inquiry process and apply it to their very own science project! We will guide kids in developing, testing and sharing results for an experiment, from brainstorming ideas to finding background information and making observations. The final session will include a time to share their findings with the group in a mini-science fair!

1 Your Guide

Alecyn Lea Learn more about me

I'm an artist, a speculative-fiction writer, tiny-home dweller, mediocre ukulele player, and a true believer that you can figure out how to make anything you can dream up. Most days, I can be found slinging some mud around on my pottery wheel and trying (and sometimes failing) to prevent my new puppy from chewing on absolutely everything. In addition to my degree in education, I have a bachelors of fine arts and I love volunteering at my local literacy organization! I speak a little German from my time living in Berlin (where I led a weekly STEM club for learners) and I believe every subject in school should be guided through the lens of Art.

I strive to live as sustainably and off-grid as I can. My big dream is to move into a tiny, off-grid, cabin in the forest to make pots all day, especially if I can have a couple of goats (maybe even tiny goats!)
