We are EXCITED to share the work of our brilliant STEAM & Media Engagement Junior Ambassadors in Durham County! This video production was made possible through their hard work AND the support of members of our community. We are deeply grateful for the contributions, passion, and unwavering support of our team and equally important, the very people who took time out of their busy schedules to make this production possible--parents, youth, volunteers, and our (very silly) cast!
