A Fundraiser for STEAM Studio SkillSet

You’re invited to an evening of craft, food, fun, and fundraising when UNC Asheville’s STEAM Studio SkillSet celebrates its fourth anniversary!

Come out to STEAM Studio on Thursday, June 2, from 5 – 7 p.m. to tour the studio, take part in a silent auction with expertly crafted objects from STEAM Studio instructors, and enjoy hors d’oeuvres and beverages.

Tickets for the event are $30 through Eventbrite

Proceeds will benefit SkillSet, an outreach program of UNC Asheville’s STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) Studio providing access to life-changing skills through maker-based education. At SkillSet, community members of all ages can participate in summer camps and day classes, learning everything from making custom electric guitars to programming robotics and building furniture. Students of all skill levels become familiar with tools and develop the technical skills and resilience to create these objects. SkillSet primarily serves under-resourced communities, female-identified, and gender-expansive students to ensure visibility of diverse identities in STEAM fields and inspire students to consider new interests and career paths.
