STEM Portals provides an alternative way into science and math for young people by providing an embodied exploration using Capacitor's innovative cross-disciplinary approach. Through inquiry, movement, and Capacitor's signature sculptures, Portals aims to create a spark of curiosity and inspire more young people to pursue careers in STEM fields.

It all started when…

Since 1997, Capacitor has created and presented projects in collaboration with top research scientists covering topics like forest and ocean ecology, the biology of flowers, marine mammal communication and neuroscience.

We teach a variety of workshops for elementary, junior high, and high-school students which include a dance warm-up, physics/engineering lesson, art discussion, five-minute performance, and lots of physical and conceptual exploration. Students are left inspired to actualize their dreams and engage in creative problem solving.
