Our locally owned business was inspired by a passion for STEAM: Science, Technology, Engineering, ART and Math. At STEAMboat Studio, we believe in the flexible thinking that the creative nature of art brings to the often more rigid concepts found in science, technology, engineering and math. Our programs give students that extra layer of exposure to concepts they are sure to encounter as their education continues. Now is the time to lay the foundation for innovative problem-solving, through the tools, methods and techniques explored in our programs.
STEAM, the basis on which we design all of our programs, is much more than just STEM plus Art. It’s a philosphy, supported by research that shows the vital connection between creativity and learning. We recognize that Science, Technology, Engineering and Math are inherently considered skills. We’re here to promote Art/creativity as a skill, one that can be developed through experience in a positive environment where questions, curiosity and surprises are encouraged. This is at the core of everything we do. We offer multi-week classes in Art, Science, Engineering, Coding, and Technology, drop-in Art programs and Art-, Science-, and Engineering-themed birthday parties and events.
