About this event
Join us for a Girls in Aviation Day where young women can explore the exciting world of aviation and aerospace!
Who should attend
If you're curious about flight, engineering, or what a future in aviation could look like, this day is built for you. - **Girls and young women who want to explore aviation and aerospace** in a welcoming, hands-on setting. Whether you're already passionate about planes and space or just starting to ask questions, you'll have room to learn and explore. - **Students who enjoy STEM subjects** like math, science, technology, or problem-solving and want to see how those interests connect to real careers in the air and on the ground. - **Future pilots, engineers, mechanics, air traffic controllers, and aviation leaders** who want a better sense of the many paths available across the industry. - **Beginners who don't have any prior aviation experience.** You do not need technical knowledge to belong here, just curiosity and a willingness to discover something new. - **Families and mentors looking for encouraging exposure to aviation** for the girls in their lives, especially if you're hoping to help them imagine bigger possibilities for school, work, and leadership. - **Anyone who would feel inspired by being at the Southern Museum of Flight** and learning about aviation in a place where history, innovation, and future opportunities come together.
