Washington College’s GIP STEM Day!

Mapping Maryland: Exploring Place

Join Washington College’s Center for Environment & Society Geospatial Innovation Program (GIP) for a hands-on STEM exploration of maps and the places that matter to us!

Young participants will have the opportunity to assemble a 3D-printed puzzle map of Maryland divided into counties and create an “All About My Place” explosion map featuring drawings and representations of places that are meaningful to them.

This interactive program is part of the 2026 Maryland STEM Festival, celebrating science, technology, engineering, and mathematics through hands-on learning opportunities across the state.

When: Saturday, November 7, 1-3 p.m.
Where: Kent County Public Library
Who: Young mapmakers and curious explorers!
