Weekday Picks for Boston Kids: Neighborhood Nights and STEAM, July 20-24

7/19/15 - By Kip Wilson Rechea

Most locals know about the great activities going on at Massachusetts museums this summer as part of Free Fun Fridays. But in case you didn't know, some museums offer free events on other weekdays, including Neighborhood Nights at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum (pictured). Having attended one of these free evenings before, I can tell you that they are fun for everyone in the family.

Trying to avoid summer slide? STEM camps offer one way to keep kids' minds active, but you can also inject a little STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Math) into your child's day at local parks. As always, some great outdoor concerts round out the week, so have a great one, and don't forget to check out the full Event  Calendar!
