Women Rock Science is a women-led fundraising event that aims to celebrate women in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) and ignite curiosity in children. Proceeds from the event will help bring more STEAM programming, delivered by Cranbrook Institute of Science educators, to Pre-K-12 students in under-resourced communities throughout Michigan, including Detroit, Pontiac, Flint, Southfield, and others. Since 2018, Women Rock Science has raised over $1.3 million towards STEAM education!

Guests can expect to enjoy a fun cocktail hour, hands-on tabletop activities, engaging networking opportunities, access to all of the museum’s exhibits, and delicious hors d’oeuvres and STEAM-themed cocktails, all while celebrating inspiring women in #STEAM and this year’s #WRS honorees!

After a sold-out event in 2023, with more than 340 guests, the Institute is mixing things up this year to accommodate ticket demand for an additional 100 guests – making this the biggest Women Rock Science event yet!
