LAPS Superintendent Dr. Kurt Steinhaus, right, visits Gadgets, the Bradbury Science Museum Association's (BSMA) souvenir pop-up shop, during the recent Chamisa Elementary Science Night at the museum.
The BSMA is the newly formed non-profit association with the sole mission of raising money to support Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education outreach into Northern New Mexico.
“STEM education is an important part of what the Los Alamos schools do every day. Our students especially enjoy the hands-on minds-on activities,” Dr. Steinhaus said. “Thank you for the Association's partnership with the museum, and for taking STEM education opportunities outside of Los Alamos and into all of Northern New Mexico.”
Proceeds from merchandise purchased through the Gadgets souvenir shop support STEM education outreach. BSMA members receive 10 percent discount off of their purchases. Gadgets is a 100 percent volunteer operation.

- Monday 1-3 p.m.;
- Tuesday 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.;
- Wednesday 2-5 p.m.; and
- Thursday 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The BSMA is not a part of the Los Alamos National Laboratory and does not receive funding from LANL.
