ARO worked with Girls Inc. to teach the art of glass blowing to middle school girls between the ages of 9 and 13 years. The experience occurred over the course of several weeks and was designed to strengthen the girls’ understanding of STEAM principles by using a hands-on approach. The students were able to take what they learn in the classroom and create a beautiful chandelier of flowers.
