What are Craft Lake City’s STEM Volunteer Opportunities?
Craft Lake City offers a variety of engaging and fun STEM opportunities for youth and adults throughout the year which always need the assistance of passionate volunteers. In addition to the GFiber STEM Building at the Annual Craft Lake City DIY Festival, over the past few years we have hosted STEM Family Nights and launched a rocketry science program at Title I schools across the Wasatch Front. These events provide free, fun, and engaging STEM activities for low income youth and their families. In 2022, we also created the STEM Lab series of in-person workshops for adults to explore the intersection of science and art.

Stay connected with opportunities in a variety of unique ways throughout the year, like art installations and pop-up events.
