As part of the Maryland STEM Festival, we’re offering a special educational workshop for kids & families! In this workshop participants will learn about train aerodynamics. How does the shape of the locomotive affect its speed and efficiency on the track? We’ll find out by building paper airplane models and relate their designs to the design of locomotives. Participants will test their creations in our flying zone to see which model is the fastest.
This workshop is included with regular Museum Admission, and participants are welcome to drop in any time from 1-2 PM.

“The Underground Railroad exhibit particularly made an impression. You can learn about the enslaved people who passed through Mount Clare Station as their last stop before reaching the northern states. Sobering and inspiring stories.”
