Program Description

Event Details

Explore science, technology, engineering, art, and math at our monthly STEAM programs. 

In September, attendees will learn about and experience virtual reality (VR). Following a brief presentation, they can sign up for 15-minute time slots to play games using one of the library’s VR headsets. 

Explore library resources or take a virtual tour of the National Museum of Natural History while waiting for a turn with the VR headset. 

Recommended for children ages 10-18. Registration required.

Use of a VR headset can cause nausea, disorientation, vertigo, seizures, motion sickness, general discomfort, headaches, anxiety or other physical, mental- or health-related injuries. Those with epilepsy may be adversely affected by VR experiences.
