The Engineering Navigator is a prototype AI-powered platform that connects students, families, and educators to engineering opportunities across the U.S. To show the power of this tool, we're focusing on North Carolina, where we're mapping local events and programs to show what's possible when communities are connected.

The Art Gallery is the New Gym: Get Creative, Get Smarter
Engaging art is a creative act. There are art galleries and museums everywhere. Let's use them well. Art objects aren't puzzles to solve, but rather invitations to experience something new and make it personally meaningful. As Josiah McElheny explains, 'The experience of art is a kind of fusion of your experience of yourself and of the object.' In doing this personal creativity is exercised and you get smarter. This session will get you started on doing it well, showing how to exercise effectively.
