Vampire Squid Labs aims to increase awareness in STEM by targeting students in elementary school, middle school and high school. Our approach utilizes hands-on projects and focuses on creativity and showcasing students’ projects in performances and art shows.
Vampire Squid Labs was born from the idea that our youth, prominently in low-income areas of the city, are not exposed to any of the STEM disciplines. We believe that through our workshops we can help inspire the next generation of Engineers and Scientists.
