Jacksonville MOSH (Museum of Science and History) is hosting the very first Minecraft Build Challenge with our program partner Microsoft at St. Johns Town Center!  This event is designed to encourage creativity and promote STEM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math). Event participants will work in teams or as individuals to create original Minecraft build designs that showcase a future Jacksonville!
