Students of all ages are invited to join in the learning and fun at LATTC and engage in interactive exhibits, hands-on activities, and real-life presentations from industry experts. NCRF’s STEAM program has designed the day to expand the minds of future generations and encourage a platform for partnerships. Technology is the future and bright minds must be exposed to as many opportunities as possible!


Admission is free, so all are welcome to bring family and friends along for a day of discovery. Those in attendance can see cars, planes, animation, gaming, programming, film, TV, music, coding, computers, circuitry, robotics, drones, solar energy, and so much more. We encourage educators, homeschoolers, and local community groups to plan a field trip for their students.


This event will help students gain a more excellent knowledge about STEAM with age-appropriate breakout sessions and workshops highlighting careers in gaming, e-sports, aeronautics, engineering, the Navy and other STEAM topics, including “eSports: How to Get Started” and “Boomin’ Careers: STEAM Edition”, and more.


Additionally, 11th and 12th graders can learn about college opportunities and WIN scholarships; visit www.ncrfoundation.org for more details.


“Our STEAM EXPO mantra is IGNITE, EXCITE, INSPIRE! We believe in opening doors to all students of all backgrounds to be inspired by STEAM,” says Veronica Brias Kummerfeldt, NCRF Director of Operations and STEAM.

The 11th Annual Students Think STEAM Expo™ is proudly sponsored by SoCalGas, the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, Carollo Engineering, Toyota, and the US Navy.
