Our GEMS Workshops are aimed at providing girls with hands-on activities and experiences to keep them involved in STEM. Each month, GEMS will study the work of a renowned female scientist while engaging in hands-on lessons. GEMS is a free drop-off program that is fun, educational, and shows the numerous ways STEM topics can be pursued both in their future educations and as potential career pathways. If we support a young woman in STEM, then she can change the world.

April 11: Temple Grandin: Animal Behaviorist
Ready to see how thinking differently can change the world? Temple Grandin is an autistic scientist who used her unique way of thinking to understand animals like no one else could! Her visual thinking and deep empathy helped her design better spaces for animals and change how people see both animals and autism. In this workshop, we’ll celebrate the power of different minds as we observe animal behavior, use our senses to solve problems, and explore what it means to think outside the box!
