The Suncoast Science Center/Faulhaber Fab Lab is ready to get things buzzing for summer 2026 with its new STEAM camps and Skill Lab Trade Series. With over 35 weeklong sessions, students from grades 2 to 8 will dive deep into the thrilling worlds of engineering, artificial intelligence, and even food science! Imagine young minds experimenting and designing real-world projects, all while having a blast.
Not only does the Fab Lab make learning fun, but it also emphasizes mentorship by featuring high school students as camp leaders. These near-peer mentors help foster a creative and dynamic environment, ensuring younger campers feel inspired and supported. Plus, who wouldn’t want to say they learned about movie special effects during summer break?
For older students, the new Skill Lab Trade Series offers hands-on workshops focusing on practical skills, such as woodworking, metalworking, and electronics. This is a fantastic opportunity for high school students to pick up valuable skills and create something they can take home. With innovative curriculums and engaging instructors, the Suncoast Science Center continues to light the way for future creators and innovators in the Sarasota area. Summer is shaping up to be seriously cool!
