Log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

This presentation booth will showcase the work of the New York Hall of Science Maker Space team. We will be breaking our time down into three sections, so please feel free to join us during the session time that most connects with the work that you do, or hang out for the whole thing and learn a little about all of our work! Members of the team will be available to discuss our programming and answer any questions you may have.

The session sections will explore the following topics:
  • 1:00-2:00 Community and Afterschool Programs
  • 2:00-3:00 High School and Tech Programs
  • 3:00-4:00 Weekend and Family Programs
