Black Creativity offers a wide range of targeted, culturally relevant STEM education programming supported by the Museum’s Welcome to Science Initiative. Black Creativity programs and exhibits reach over 10,000 students, their teachers, and their families in underserved Chicago neighborhoods each year. The program has four main goals:

  • Provide exposure for African-American youth to careers, educational pathways, and other opportunities in science technology, engineering and medicine.

  • Deepen students’ engagement with STEAM through hands-on learning.

  • Increase access to MSI and its resources to African-Americana students and their families.

Showcase African Americans and their contributions, past and current, to the fields of science, technology, engineering and medicine.
