Cleveland in Autumn
Registration is open for the International Women’s Air & Space Museum’s (IWASM) 2023 Wings of Women (WOW) STEM Conference. The unique event for middle and high-school-aged young women welcomes students across northeast Ohio to explore potential STEM careers, engage in hands-on activities, and learn from mentors in small group settings.
The 2023 WOW Conference welcomes keynote speakers Dr. Claudette Owens, Electrical Engineer, and Cybersecurity Expert, and retired US Army Colonel and Chief Operating Officer of Veteran Victory Alliance Mary Miller. They will be joined by other women in natural and wildlife sciences, aviation manufacturing, aerospace engineering, astronomy, and more. Hosted at IWASM in Burke Lakefront Airport, students will learn about the women who’ve come before and have the opportunity to find the right fit for their future career and education goals.
WOW takes place on Saturday, 14 October 2023, from 8:00 to 14:00 EDT. Registration is free, but prior application is required. Participants will receive a light breakfast, lunch, a commemorative t-shirt, and information about colleges and universities nationwide. The registration deadline is 11 October 2023. This year’s event is sponsored by Signature Flight Support, the American Institute for Avionics and Astronautics (AIAA) Northern Ohio Section, and the Bede Family Foundation.
IWASM is a 501(c)3 nonprofit museum with the mission to preserve, educate, and inspire its communities about the history and culture of women in all areas of aviation and aerospace. Located inside Cleveland’s Burke Lakefront Airport, exhibits are free of charge seven days a week from 08:00 to 20:00 Eastern Time. Guided tours may be arranged by appointment.
