Upcoming Third Thursdays

    STEAM Fest

    MoSH participates in the Tennessee STEAM Festival every year in October. Festival dates change from year to year, but the celebration brings science, technology, engineering, art, and math to life through hands-on activities, community partnerships, and staff-led demonstrations.

    Curiosity meets creativity during the Tennessee STEAM Festival. Each year, STEAM unites to spark wonder in learners of all ages, with events across Tennessee ranging from hands-on workshops to immersive pop-ups and demonstrations.

    Whether guests are students or lifelong learners, the Festival highlights unique career opportunities in Tennessee, helps kids imagine future careers, and gives families a chance to explore community organizations they may not have known about before.
