Volunteer with Flying Cloud Institute
Join a legacy of inspiration and creativity when you volunteer with Flying Cloud’s young scientists, engineers, and artists. Work alongside educators in after school programs, community events, and summer camps as you share your STEM journey.
Girls’ Science Club Visiting Scientists
Girls’ Science Clubs explore hands-on science investigations and engineering challenges while helping build an identity as STEM-capable learners and leaders.
Young Women in Science Volunteers visit our after-school clubs to introduce students to the broad range of careers and opportunities available, share the story behind their career, and explain how these young future scientists can follow in their footsteps.
These 1-2 hour volunteer opportunities for women-identifying STEM professionals include explaining your career, supporting an activity related to your field run by the Flying Cloud Club leader, and a Q&A session for the students to learn more about your work.
S•M•Art Studio: Artists & Makers
MakerSpaces and afterschool S•M•Art Labs support learning in an informal, play-focused environment that can cultivate an interest in science, technology, and design. Join us for an afternoon of exploration, share your passion for 3D printing, or lead a workshop on community art. Creativity is contagious!
STEM Summer Intensive
Meet us in real research labs at Berkshire Community College, SABIC Plastics, and Berkshire Innovation Center in a week of hands-on exploration with youth ages 9-19. Girls gain access to real science materials and equipment while working alongside women STEM professionals who share their passion for science and engineering.
Community Events
We have so much fun when we get to partner with organizations like Greenagers, Berkshire Museum, Hancock Shaker Village, and Bousquet to bring the joy of science and art to everyone in the Berkshires! Volunteer with us for an hour, a day, a week, a season.. and see your impact on the next generation.
