Inventors´ Club

The Bakken Museum´s Inventors´ Club is a six-week program for girls and boys who are full of ideas.  Young inventors dream up and build their own creation like a burglar alarm to keep their little brother out of their room, a book light disguised as a bookmark for secret night-time reading, even a solar-powered remote control car!  Participants receive guidance from mentors in the science and engineering fields in the museum´s fully equipped workshop, using the supplies and tools provided.  When the program is finished, inventions are displayed for friends, family and museum visitors to see.

Inventors´ Club participants are invited to work on their projects in The Bakken Museum´s workshop from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. on Thursdays during the session (no additional charge).
