ASM Announces New Educational “Bilingual STEAM Program”
The American Space Museum is pleased to announce a new FREE educational “Bilingual STEAM* Program” for ages 4 ‑ 12 on the first Saturday of each month at our Titusville, Florida location. The classes are free but each class is limited to 20 students. Pre-registration Required for each class.
The program will not only teach Space Age concepts, but will add the Spanish language to the vocabulary of the students via the educational materials. You do NOT need to know Spanish to attend. Students will learn new phrases and terms along with science education.
We also welcome Natalia Sepúlveda** to our staff. She will conduct the Saturday classes with the following themes for 2024…
- Oct. 5th: “Hispanic Astronaut Heritage”
- Nov. 2nd: “Your Space Age Home”

More to come in 2025
