Nerdy Events In Phoenix This Month

We all know this is a big year with the Super Bowl being in Arizona, but for our less athletically inclined there are still some great things to check out in AZ this year. Like the Arizona SciTech Festival, which runs from late Jan through March. There will be around 700 events and workshops for all ages, some online, that promote use of STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and math). Check out their website here azscitech.com, for event times and details.

At Laboratory5 Inc. We bring together all elements of STEAM and tie them up into a package to promote the work each individual is doing in their fields to celebrate this work. We produce experiences so that those unfamiliar with the glorious, quirky, nerdy, geeky qualities of all areas of STEAM can be explored as an adventure to explain these fields.

Laboratory5 Inc. is a small business based in Tempe, Arizona
