Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, & Math (STEAM) Team

We believe learning where you live instills responsibility and ownership in our youth, encouraging them to give back, drive positive change, and support community development. We understand the value of physical connection when learning and working with others. 

The King Urban Life Center afterschool STEAM Team is free for all participants in grades K-8. We deliver exceptional service by engaging students and exposing them to a wide variety of educational and cultural programming they may not otherwise experience. Our afterschool STEAM Team supports a variety of innovative school-age programs through various partnerships throughout the city of Buffalo.

Some of our many collaborators include our long-standing relationship with the Buffalo Museum of Science, which offers weekly in-house science activities. Zandra Beauty, Buffalo’s own “kidpreneur” turned beauty mogul, Burchfield Penney Art Center, Osanii Productions dance program, Algonquin Sports, Buffalo Urban Leagues Project Hope, CEPA Gallery, The Buffalo Philharmonic, Torn Space Theater, Grassroots Gardens, and many others.
