Previous Events
New Bedford Science Café KIDS is a new off-shoot of New Bedford Science Café that will be working to connect students in New Bedford to scientists and their research. This program will be piloting this year at elementary and middle schools throughout the city and hopes to grow to inspire as many children in our community as possible. We will be bringing in scientists, researchers, and local graduate students to share their research with students and then allow time for the children to have a discussion and Q&A.
STEM fields account for 8.6 million jobs with 93% of these positions paying significantly higher wages than the national average. We aim to inspire all local youth, regardless of race or gender, to pursue a STEM career and be knowledgeable about important scientific topics. If you have questions or are interested in helping us reach this goal, please contact Alexandrea Matthews, Programs and Events Manager for the City of New Bedford Dept. of Parks, Recreation & Beaches.
