Girls Day Out 2024 is presented by EDF Renewables

March 9, 2024 /  Girls Ages 10-14 / STEAM and Career Exploration Activities

Girls Day Out, hosted by Tompkins Cortland Community College, is a place for girls ages 10-14 to immerse themselves in science, music, art, and career path exploration activities with the help of local women leaders. This year, the theme of International Women’s Day is to “Inspire Inclusion,” and we plan to do just that. We will engage and empower ALL girls in our community by equipping them with the tools to go out into the world as we see them: equal, powerful, and unstoppable.

Details:

The day’s events will include the following:

• An interactive career fair with accomplished women from the Cortland community and surrounding areas.
• A ukulele lesson to learn the basics and a few beginner songs.
• A collaborative and empowering art project with a local artist.
• An engaging science project exploring our local environment.
• An end-of-day pool party!

Lunch and a snack will be provided, along with a 2024 Girls Day Out bag.
