The Inventors Workshop for Kids is more than just a fun educational outing—it’s a celebration of Flushing’s rich history and the enduring legacy of Lewis Howard Latimer. Hosted at the historic Lewis Howard Latimer House Museum, this event not only ignites young minds with hands-on STEM activities but also connects our community’s youth with an important figure in both local and national history. By gathering in this beautifully preserved Victorian home, families can share in a story of innovation, perseverance, and progress right here in Flushing. Events like these bridge the past and future, inspiring local kids to dream big and reminding us all of the powerful impact our community has had—and continues to have—on science, technology, and society as a whole.
