Enjoy your day off school with this hands on fun activity! For ages 8 & up.

Looking for a fun activity for an afternoon off from school? Learn about Leonardo da Vinci, build a self-sustaining bridge. Known primarily as an artist, Leonardo da Vinci was also a scientist and engineer who inventions were way ahead of his time.


Leonardo da Vinci’s self-supporting bridge was a remarkable feat of engineering. It required no nails or ropes to hold it together and could be carried into any battlefield and assembled by just a handful of men.

In this fun and challenging STEM program with Engineer Todd, you will attempt to build your own da Vinci Bridge using craft sticks as a substitute for interlocking wooden planks.

Cost: Free
