AMOS is the center for expert STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics) learning in WNC. We strive to spark imagination and foster lifelong curiosity in the museum and through both in-house and outreach STEAM education programs. These include field trips, in-school and after-school programs, intensive science camps, Saturday STEAM education, and involvement in events that serve our community. At AMOS we believe that our expert designed STEAM programing contributes to our youth’s interest in STEAM, connection to caring adults who serve as role models, reduction of the achievement gap, and preparation for 21st century work environments.
