This Saturday, the Sarasota Children’s Museum invites families, educators, and community
members to help celebrate the nonprofit’s one-year anniversary during its “First Rotation
Celebration” from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Payne Park in Sarasota.
The space-themed celebration will feature interactive STEAM (science, technology,
engineering, arts, and mathematics) activities, free books, music, and several of Sarasota’s
favorite local food trucks. The museum will unveil its new logo and give attendees a sneak
peek of its new mobile museum–the STEAM Machine–a 24-foot, fully solar-powered
museum on wheels. Through a partnership with Ringling College of Art and Design, the
STEAM Machine and its exhibits will be designed by the college’s entertainment design
students and ready to be enjoyed by the public in spring 2025.
“We are so excited to bring the community together to help us celebrate this major
milestone,” commented Sarasota Children’s Museum Founder Christina ‘CC’ Fredericks.
“In just one year, we have grown significantly, expanded our team and our partnerships, and
have been warmly embraced by those in this community. As our way of saying ‘thanks,’ we
hope to see families, educators, and friends this Saturday as we celebrate our progress and
the beginning of what’s to come.”
