During our STEAM Studio Day Camp on Monday, October 12, we'll be celebrating National Arts & Humanities Month! 🎨

Campers will create digital art and animations, design 3D sculptures and explore music and sound creation to bring their ideas to life, drawing inspiration from famous works of art and issues they care about.

They’ll then collaborate on a large-scale projection art project, combining their work into a shared “moving mural” that shows how art and technology can merge into something dynamic and larger-than-life!

Cost is $50 per child. Register here: https://buff.ly/4pcMXIn
