Students in New Albany took part in a creative STEAM activity at the Union County Heritage Museum. They learned about builder Ted Porter and then designed, built, and painted their own city blocks, according to museum staff.
Museum volunteers and members of the Anchor Club assisted with the event. Participants showcased their work in a video posted to the museum’s TikTok account, illustrating the process of assembling the city blocks into a town.
The museum shared the video on social media, encouraging viewers to watch the construction process. The activity aimed to engage young learners in architecture and engineering concepts through hands-on experience.
Local media outlets and community organizations, including WNAU and the New Albany Gazette, highlighted the event, emphasizing its role in promoting STEM education in the area.
