NextGen STEMFest: Innovate and Create
The inaugural NextGen STEMFest will take place on May 10, 2025, at the Charles River Museum of Industry and Innovation in Waltham. This all-ages, community-focused event to celebrate 75 years of innovation supported by the National Science Foundation.
Visitors can enjoy interactive exhibits, hands-on activities, and workshops from leading STEM companies and university labs. Topics include regenerative medicine, physical computing, biotechnology, and more. Guests can also try laser cutting, 3D printing, and screen printing at the youth-led Charles River Collaboratory.
Museum admission is free during the event, and the Watch City Steampunk Festival will be happening nearby, making it a perfect day out for curious minds.
