Amazement Square

Amazement Square will partner with five central Virginia libraries to provide the STEAM Library Makers programs designed for at-risk early learners not enrolled in early learning facilities to help them develop the skills they need to enter Kindergarten and empower their caregivers to help them learn at home. Project activities include developing, implementing, evaluating, and refining the monthly STEAM programs and providing STEAM maker education training for library staff. Project funds will support fabricating mobile maker spaces for each partner library, program materials, and paid college internships. Program participants will develop a love for learning and curiosity while developing skills that will help prepare them for kindergarten.
