Creative Spark Inventor exhibit

We were delighted to have the exhibit Creative Spark Inventive Women displayed during Women’s History Month at Seneca College. The exhibit presented the creativity, commitment and, at times, courage of women working in various fields including science and technology. The students benefited from the exposure to these untold histories.
Many Thanks,
