About this Event

What happens when a young science lover with a knack for teaching turns his favorite experiments into a summer series?

You get Pierce’s Science Exploration Series, a one-of-a-kind lineup of hands-on workshops designed especially for kids ages 8–13.

Hosted by House of Shine’s SHINE U program—which highlights Hobbies, Interests/Irritants, and Experiences from our SHINE framework—this four-part series is designed to spark curiosity through hands-on learning and exploration. Led by 12 (soon-to-be 13) year-old Pierce Morgan, each session blends science with creativity, imagination, and energy. In these workshops, students will jump into a new experiment that blends science with imagination—designed to build confidence, inspire exploration, and make science feel fun and accessible.
