Your organization is invited to participate in the Annual Community STEM Celebration! STEM City and its partners have worked to create this unique opportunity for all of Flagstaff to engage with the STEM community including K-12 schools, college and university educational institutions, businesses, government agencies, non-profits, and others.

The STEM Celebration offers Flagstaff residents a chance to explore the dynamic world of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). This day will be full of hands-on activities, engaging demonstrations, and insightful conversations. At this event, attendees should expect to be introduced to STEM as potential for educational opportunities and viable career paths. Let’s come together and celebrate Flagstaff's designation as "America's First STEM Community."

Flagstaff STEM City invites everyone to join in this celebration of knowledge, innovation, and community collaboration. We encourage all FUSD schools to participate as an exhibitor at the 2025 STEM Celebration. Please complete the registration form here by March 31, 2026, to participate. Schools can submit multiple registrations for different clubs and/or departments within the organization.
