If you like having hands-on experiences in nature, making discoveries, and studying wild animals, then this club is for you! From squirrels to slime molds, come explore the wild side of STEM with Harris Center naturalists Jaime Hutchinson and Susie Spikol. Different women in STEM professions will be highlighted each session, with special guests including an Antarctic scientist and a raptor biologist. All events in this series are free of charge. For middle schoolers and up.

Meet scientist Karen Seaver (pictured) and hear about her research studying worms in Antarctica! Take the life-in-the-cold design challenge to see if you could survive in the cold, and discover how wild animals are adapted for survival in below-freezing temperatures.

10 a.m. to noon at the Harris Center. Space is limited, and separate registration is required for each LAB GIRLS+ session. For more information about this particular event, including questions about accessibility, or to be notified about future LAB GIRLS+ events, contact Susie.
