The Lewis County American Association of University Women and Centralia College present the 30th annual
Expanding Your Horizons Conference!

Featuring Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) career workshops for 6th through 9th grade students in Lewis and South Thurston counties!

Lewis County Expanding Your Horizons is back with 22 fun and educational hands-on STEAM career workshops for area students in the 6th through 9th grades.

Participants select and attend 2 workshops where instructors will share why they chose their field, what they do, and what education is required to enter their profession. Workshops include fun hands-on exercises to help students get a sense of what is involved with each career field. All students will also be able to attend an exciting assembly where representatives from the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry demonstrate physics at work with experiments on energy conversion, forces, inertia, and laws of motion.

This year’s event will also include a separate, optional workshop for parents covering topics including Running Start, how to fund a college or trade school education, and more!

Pre-registration deadline is October 8, 2025; however some workshops will likely fill prior to that date.
