What is STEAM? In this first episode of STEAM Rises, the hosts Melina O'Grady and Melinda Barbosa highlight the accessibility of The Hive maker space in the Cambridge Public Library and the ways in which people are engaging with STEAM in innovative and interesting ways. They are exploring the idea that STEAM is not just about social mobility or financial gain, but about real impact and change. The podcast aims to challenge listeners to think differently about STEAM and its role in their lives, and to recognize that everyone has the capacity to engage with STEAM in their own unique way.
