“Code, Create, or Play”
Join us for a celebration of innovation, imagination, and hands-on learning as students in grades 3–12 showcase their creativity through Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Mathematics.
About the Fair
For over a decade, the WHJESP S.T.E.A.M. Fair has showcased student innovation across Western New York. Students present individual and group projects developed from concept to creation and evaluated by a panel of judges.
Students explore scientific principles, conduct experiments, and leverage technology to solve real-world problems.
From robotics to creative design, projects blend technical skill with artistic vision and hands-on craftsmanship.
Data analysis, problem solving, and mathematical modeling come together in projects that demonstrate critical thinking.
Prizes & Recognition
Outstanding projects are recognized with awards, prizes, and special recognition for students and educators alike.
Medals awarded to top individual and group projects in each category.
Gift cards and coveted first-place prizes awarded in every competition category.
Teachers who enter an entire class win a fun-filled pizza party and a Wegmans gift card.
