Rise RVA Community STEM Workshops
More than thirty hands-on STEM workshops delivered in Richmond, building sustained, repeated exposure to science rather than a single event.
About the initiative
Since the beginning of our partnership with RISE-RVA, our mission has stayed the same: make science engaging, accessible, and exciting for every student. Across more than thirty workshops, students have taken part in interactive experiments, collaborative activities, demonstrations, and discussions that encourage curiosity while introducing scientific concepts in a fun and approachable way.
Rather than simply learning about science, students experience it firsthand through exploration, observation, and discovery.
