WAKE FOREST, NC – The Wake Forest Technology Advisory Board (TAB) is inviting local elementary, middle, and high school students and their families to attend this year’s Wake Forest STEM Saturday on Saturday, April 11. Presented by the Wireless Research Center, this free family networking event is scheduled from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. at Joyner Park Community Center, 701 Harris Road.

Celebrating Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math, STEM Saturday will expose students in grades K-12 to a variety of STEM career options, while featuring STEM-related exhibits, demonstrations, and hands-on learning activities.

This year’s STEM Saturday will feature a hands‑on Science Lab packed with creative, curiosity‑sparking activities for kids in grades K-8. Young scientists will decode secret messages, explore colorful chromatography, investigate mystery powders, make their own spy cards, and dive into real lab techniques in a fun, supportive environment. 

Our Science Lab will offer rotating age‑group sessions throughout the day, so families are invited to drop in, experiment together, and experience science in a way that’s playful, memorable, and genuinely exciting. It’s a great chance for students to discover how much fun learning can be!

STEM Saturday will also include several interactive booths where representatives from a variety of local businesses, schools, and organizations will engage with parents and students, share professional insights and experiences, and offer an array of interesting demonstrations.

Throughout STEM Saturday, youth can experience the wonders of STEM hands-on, ask questions, and be inspired to pursue a degree or occupation in a related field.
