Flying into the Future

Flying into the Future is where science and nature collide to bring you activities focused on STEAM – Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math. We are all about forward-thinking at this Family Fun Day! Come ready to learn about flying animals with Wings to Soar and test your tinkering skills with STEAM-themed partners, crafts, games and activities. Plus, participate in one of the activities that will be part of the River Roots Science Stations. Visit CNC after the event to check out additional River Roots Science Stations beginning on March 16.

Wings to Soar returns this year with their unique flighted raptor show!
