Early learners from ages 3 – 5 are invited to join us for an interactive online session exploring the people, places, and stories that make Pittsburgh unique!

This session will feature the story of Bertha Lamme, one of the first women who worked as an engineer. Learn about Bertha’s passion for electrical engineering, some of the tools she used in her job, and how she encouraged women to work in both science and engineering. We’ll design a simple project based on her work!
