STEAM Saturdays: Pumpkins and Plasticity

  • Science Gallery Atlanta 4800 Briarcliff Road Atlanta, GA, 30345 United States (map)

Join us for a fun-filled autumn activity where science meets creativity! In this hands-on workshop, we will learn about synaptic plasticity—the brain’s ability to grow and change—while making festive fall crafts.

We’ll use pumpkins, magazines, and other seasonal materials to create colorful collages that represent how our brain's neurons connect and adapt over time. Through our crafts, we will learn how new experiences and learning change the brain, just like how we change and shape our crafts!
