Delaware Libraries Grab & Go STEM: Paper Merry-go-round,
Delaware Libraries
The Paper Merry-Go-Round Project is a hands-on craft that combines creativity, engineering, and decoration to make a miniature spinning carousel. Using paper cups as the base, participants construct a circular “platform” with a central pivot that allows the cups or seats to rotate like a real merry-go-round. The craft can be personalized with colors, patterns, and embellishments to mimic animals, fairground rides, or whimsical designs.

AAAI 2026 Spring Symposium Series,
The Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence
The Spring Symposium Series is an annual set of meetings run in parallel at a common site. It is designed to bring colleagues together in an intimate forum while at the same time providing a significant gathering point for the AI community. The two-and-a-half-day format of the series allows participants to devote considerably more time to feedback and discussion than typical one-day workshops. It is an ideal venue for bringing together new communities in emerging fields.
