We’re excited to announce the return of STEMtember, a month-long celebration of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics!
This September, we invite you to join us in showcasing the incredible impact of STEM in our community under the theme “STEM is Everyone.” We aim to highlight how STEM touches all our lives and how everyone can find their place in these fields.

Whether you’re a parent, educator, or community partner, there are numerous ways to participate. From family-friendly activities to professional networking events, we invite you to be a part of this exciting initiative. Let’s inspire the next generation of STEM leaders together!
“STEM is Everyone” Promotional Toolkits
Join us in celebrating “STEM is Everywhere. STEM is Everyone. All are Welcome.” with our community-wide initiative promoting belonging and the importance of STEM education. We offer digital resources and physical kits for partners, including the return of our popular STEM Happens Here yard signs and banners.
We’re using yard signs, banners, social media, radio ads, a partner media kit, and events to spread this message. We invite our partners to amplify their voices and help us showcase STEM across our community!
Family Fun at the Parks: All Month Long!
Families and youth of all ages have an opportunity to engage in STEM at select Tulsa County Parks and the Gathering Place throughout the month of September.
In celebration of the annual Monarch Butterfly migration across Oklahoma from late September to early October, our STEM in a Bag activity this year is the “Design a Hand Pollinator” challenge. Dive into the science of pollination and engineer your own hand pollinator! Kits are available at Tulsa County Park community centers and Williams Lodge inside Gathering Place! While at Gathering Place, don’t miss the Self-Guided Nature Walk through their beautiful pollinator gardens.
