What is STEAM?

STEAM education targets the STEM fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math—but adds an Arts dimension, to engage more individuals, and to recognize the creative and artistic habits of mind in STEM professions.  

We work with numerous partner organizations to provide quality STEAM programming. 

The CPL is a part of the City of Cambridge STEAM Initiative.
