Ribbon cutting held for Great STEMporium

The Rehoboth Beach-Dewey Beach Chamber of Commerce held a ribbon cutting for The Great STEMporium Sept. 10.

The Great STEMporium is serving up science in a unique family fun way at its new location at 18388 Coastal Highway, next to Verizon and Go Brit! The space that housed Bill’s Sports Shop has been completely renovated to feel like a steampunk gastro pub with rich colors and intriguing décor.

The business has recently added 20 new menu items, events and programs. Program options include birthday parties, field trips, Girl Scouts projects, Odyssey of the Mind spontaneous practice, coding clubs, home school hours, special needs days, corporate team building, holiday parties, lectures, workshops and free demonstrations. The main menu caters to children ages 5-12 and families, but a new Sip ‘n Science option for adults is held Friday nights.

“Grandparents love bringing their grandkids, but to our surprise, adults are loving it too,” said Cari Miller, co-founder.

“Our goals are to offer a lot of options at affordable prices and to take the intimidation out of science so it’s just fun, and based on our reviews so far, I think we’re meeting those goals,” said David Stobie, co-founder.
