VACATION CAMP
Exploration, inspiration, education, creation, and acceleration are the foundations of our award-winning STEM Vacation Camps, an experience for kids ages 7-15 during February and April vacations from school (and when parents have to go into work). Get to know the technology that powers our modern and future worlds!
Explore our most popular program, STEM Exploration, gives your child a week of discovering what they love about tech – and how far their creativity can go! It’s for kids who want to explore a wide range of fun technology, find out what options are available, and uncover a passion for design. Campers will have a wide range of options to check out, including Video Game Design, Digital Animation, 3D Design & Printing, 3D Architecture, and Coding/Programming Fundamentals. Campers are encouraged to follow their interest, pursuing a deep dive into a single technology or sampling all of the technologies that we make available.
