Verde Valley SciTech Celebrates with S.T.E.A.M.
across the Valley

Verde Valley SciTech enters a new phase and focus

Verde Valley AZ (February 13, 2018) – SciTech returns to the Verde Valley with a new list of events, expos, fairs and programs to spark the imagination of people of all ages. S.T.E.A.M. across the Valley is happening all year long!

Verde Valley SciTech recognizes the importance of S.T.E.A.M. education and how professions in the fields of science, technology, engineering, art, and math impact the growth in our economy and in our knowledge-based society. We also understand how busy people are and how hard it is to add one more thing no matter how amazing, fun and vital to our communities. That’s why we decided to enter a new phase of S.T.E.A.M. focus. Rather than squeeze everything into one week, SciTech 2018 is putting the focus on S.T.E.A.M. events running from mid-February to mid-March and will continue to highlight science, technology, engineering, art and math happenings throughout the year.
