The Exploratorium, in collaboration with the Boys and Girls Club Columbia Park (BGC) in the Mission District of San Francisco, is implementing a two-year exploratory project designed to support informal education in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) within underserved Latino communities. Building off of and expanding on non-STEM-related efforts in a few major U.S. cities and Europe, the Exploratorium, BGC, and residents of the District will engage in a STEM exhibit and program co-development process that will physically convert metered parking spaces in front of the Club into transformative public places called "parklets." The BGC parklet will feature interactive, bilingual science and technology exhibits, programs and events targeting audiences including youth ages 8 - 17 and intergenerational families and groups primarily in the Mission District and users of the BGC. Parklet exhibits and programs will focus on STEM content related to "Observing the Urban Environment," with a focus on community sustainability.The project explores one approach to working with and engaging the public in their everyday environment with relevant STEM learning experiences. The development and evaluation processes are being positioned as a model for possible expansion throughout the city and to other cities.

探索馆与旧金山弗朗西斯科使命区的男孩和女孩俱乐部哥伦比亚公园（BGC）合作，正在实施一个为期两年的探索性项目，旨在支持服务不足的拉丁美洲社区的科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）的非正式教育。 在美国和欧洲一些主要城市的非STEM相关工作的基础上，探索馆、BGC和该地区的居民将参与STEM展览和项目共同开发过程，将俱乐部前面的咪表停车位实际转换为称为“parklets”的变革性公共场所。“BGC公园将以互动、双语科技展览、节目和活动为特色，面向8 - 17岁的青少年、主要在使命区的代际家庭和群体以及BGC的用户。公园的展览和项目将侧重于与“观察城市环境”相关的STEM内容，重点关注社区的可持续性。该项目探索了一种与公众合作的方法，并通过相关的STEM学习体验让公众参与日常环境。 开发和评估过程被定位为可能在整个城市和其他城市推广的模式。
