Arts festival ‘STEAMS’ along Broadway

Posted

There was a light saber demonstration, robots, artwork, music, food, crafts, a petting zoo and face painting at the sixth annual Arts Below Sunrise festival that also included the Trinity-St. John’s Episcopal Church fair on Sept. 17, along Broadway in Hewlett and Woodmere.

Coordinated by several local organizations, the festival has expanded to include an array of hands-on science-related displays and activities to promote STEAM — science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics — which is part of the Hewlett-Woodmere School District’s curriculum.
