This event is a one-day STEM conference for high school girls.  Since its inception in 2003\, Adventure Science Center’s TWISTER Conference has impacted more than 1500 attendees and over 400 women have volunteered as presenters. February 2026 will be our 23rd annual TWISTER Conference! "Thank you to the coordinators of this event! My daughter had a great time and came home chatting about all the possibilities there are for her [in a STEM career]." - Parent of a 2023 TWISTER Attendee    \n\n We champion access to STEM education by creating welcoming spaces and programs where everyone—regardless of race\, gender identity\, sexuality\, or background—can explore\, learn\, and belong.
