- Design and Build a Suspension Bridge: Discover engineering innovations from Indigenous groups (Inka, Quechua, Aymara) and create your own suspension bridge to test out these engineering principles.
- Navajo Code Talkers: Did you know Indigenous people created unbreakable “codes” to help U.S. troops win WWI and WWII? Stop in to test out these codes for yourself.
