We're thrilled to share that all work showcased at IngenuityFest2026 will be presented under our annual theme of "America Dreams." With this theme, we will be paying tribute to American Heroes and celebrating the diverse voices that make up the United States.

This land is your land. This land is our land. This land is Ingenuity.

Every day of the festival features a mix of hands-on activities for all ages. Interact with innovative and immersive exhibits that explore the intersection of arts & engineering. Will you experiment with electronics, fire, water, sound, lights, paper, chalk, clothes? Will you join the masterminds behind our STEAM & STEM labs? The possibilities are endless when you can dream.
