Inspiring Cambridge Youth through STEAM
This summer, BioMed Realty and the City of Cambridge teamed up to provide local Cambridge teens with a valuable, hands-on introduction to STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) careers at some of the world’s most innovative companies.

Join us at the annual, city-wide K-8 family STEAM night, sponsored by the Cambridge STEAM Initiative! There will be more than 30 hands-on activities for all school age children to engage in! Pizza will be provided!
STEAM Careers Exploration 2024
The goal of the STEAM Careers Exploration Program, offered through the Mayor's Summer Youth Employment Program, is to encourage teens – especially those from communities historically excluded from STEM opportunities - to pursue higher-level STEM classes in high school, decide to major in STEM fields in college, or otherwise follow a training path that leads to a well-paying career at a local company.
Stories and STEAM: Fall Leaf Rubbing (Main)
Learn about the trees in the park by making leaf and bark rubbings! Feel free to gather your own ahead of time, but some leaves will be provided. The craft will be followed by a story time. Recommended for ages 5 and up with a caregiver.
STEAM Internships
The Office of Workforce Development (OWD)’s Youth Employment team collaborates with other City initiatives, local employers and non-profits in Cambridge to offer enriching paid internships related to Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) to Cambridge teens during the school year and summer
