November 2023

NeoSTEM gathered at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History to celebrate its ongoing major expansion. CMNH is in the process of a $150 million renovation across multiple years, including upcoming immersive exhibits showing visitors as part of Earth’s evolutionary timeline. The 50,000-square-foot Visitor Hall is now open and accessible to the public. We received a special preview of the upcoming Eclipse in their newly renovated planetarium. Participants also discussed educational priorities within our region and shared goals for the coming year. Seeing one of our anchor institutions pursuing ambitious innovation was an inspirational evening. We look ahead with motivation to keep pushing STEM opportunities and access across Cleveland!
