SUMMARY:Bio-Couture: Petals\, Plumes\, and Precious Stones
DESCRIPTION:Science Museum of Minnesota members are invited to this exclusive behind-the-scenes exploration of the rich intersection of science\, nature\, and fashion. During Bio-Couture: Petals\, Plumes\, and Precious Stones\, marvel at exquisite wearable pieces pulled directly from the museum’s scientific archives\, uncovering their stories\, natural origins\, and cultural significance. \n\n\n\n\n\n21+. Enjoy light bites and beverages. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor as long as humans have dressed\, they have used materials and drawn inspiration from the natural world. Early ancestors draped themselves with furs for warmth; we now see floral motifs at Spring/Summer Fashion Week. Across cultures\, this deep relationship between nature and personal expression reveals itself in powerful ways — sometimes through appreciation for the materials and traditions that shape identity\, and other times through practices that have pushed species to the brink of extinction. \n\n\n\n\n\nFrom beadwork to gemstones\, feathers to textiles\, each item offers a window into human creativity\, ingenuity\, and our ever-evolving connection to the natural world. Expect to be inspired\, and to walk away with a deepened appreciation for how science helps us understand the materials we wear and the histories they carry.

SUMMARY:Latin Americans in STEM
DESCRIPTION:*This event has been postponed.Creating welcoming spaces where all feel valued and safe is essential to our mission. In light of recent ICE activities that have led to tragedy in our community and thoughtful feedback from our exhibitors\, we’ve decided to hold this event at another time out of care for the safety of all involved. We intend to gather at a later time\, when we can truly celebrate and honor the many essential contributions of Latin Americans in STEM. We will share once a new date is identified\, and hope you can join us then in celebration. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Science Museum of Minnesota is welcoming the best and brightest thinkers\, innovators\, and educators to celebrate community and the science that connects us. Science is better when we all work together.  \n\n\n\nDuring Latin Americans in STEM Day\, we’re bringing together voices from across Twin Cities community organizations\, educational institutions\, and advocacy groups to celebrate and elevate the impacts of diverse communities in STEM. Enjoy hands-on activities\, learn about science careers through interactive displays and presentations\, and witness engaging live performances.
