Professional Development for Public Libraries: Storybook STEAM

Calling all public libraries! Are you looking for new ways to bolster your children's programming? Join the Amazeum for a Storybook STEAM workshop to discover simple yet powerful ways to infuse STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics) into your programs. You will explore storybook inspired STEAM activities first hand while building your confidence and capacity to provide engaging, hands-on STEAM explorations for your patrons. Participants will receive activity guides, resources and facilitation strategies that will take your storytimes to a new level.  

Workshop is recommended for children’s librarians, teen librarians and/or administrators at public libraries.

The Amazeum offers private workshops for Storybook STEAM. A private workshop is 2 hours long with the date determined in collaboration between library and Amazeum. Private workshops are best when held at Amazeum due to the experience and access to resources/tools. However, workshops can be held at your library site.  

Fee*: two-hour workshop at Amazeum for up to 25 participants: $425
          two-hour workshop at school site** for up to 25 participants: $500

Advanced registration and payment required by contacting Director of Education at mporter@amazeum.org

*Fees listed are negotiable with the Director of Education based upon quantity and frequency.
**Additional fee may apply for sites over 45 miles from Amazeum. 

Professional development workshops are designed for adults only.
