The festival offers more than 30 events across East Tennessee local businesses, universities, schools and neighborhoods. Some of these signature events include STEAM in the City, ORNL Traveling Science Fair, Family STEAM Night at West Town Mall and Way Late Play Date: Marvel v. DC. In partnership with the Muse Knoxville, key sponsorships that have made these events possible include TVA, Lowes, ORNL, Arconic, KnoxMakers, Graham Corporation, Schulz Brau, Smoke-Free Knoxville and Fletcher Marketing PR.

To cap off the STEAM Festival, the Muse Knoxville is hosting the STEAM Carnival Family Fun Day on October 21. The carnival will be held 10am – 2pm at the Muse (516 North Beaman Street). This family-friendly carnival will inspire all ages with hands-on activities, play and fun! Activities include a magic show, live music, science demos, arts and crafts, special characters and more.

Over 20 years ago, I moved to Knoxville and fell in love with the city that has now truly become my home. Shortly after moving here, I married my college sweetheart, and when not working we set out to travel as much as we could. After working as a financial manager for six years, I welcomed my first son in 2010 and began a journey as a stay-at-home mom. Two years later we added another baby boy to make us a family of four. In June 2016, we welcomed our third son. I founded Knoxville Moms in November 2013 which began my career as a work-from-home mom, and it grew to the expansion of Chattanooga Moms in March 2016. We welcomed our first girl in November 2017 making us a family of six and adding a little pink in our house. In June 2021, I became the co-owner of the Atlanta Mom website, and in March 2022 I became the owner of the Nashville Moms parenting website. When I'm not carpooling the kids to sports and activities, you can find me enjoying a cup of coffee, reading a good book, and dreaming about my toes in the sand. I enjoy meeting new people and enjoy connecting the moms of Knoxville, Chattanooga, Atlanta, and Nashville.
