Get ready to create using S.T.E.A.M. power (science, technology, engineering, art, math) and your imagination! Campers work alongside design professionals who share their processes for creating mechanisms, electronics, models, and performance toys.
Campers will discover how and why things move, learning basic fabrication techniques used by real life inventors. As students sketch, cut, glue, and write stories, they’ll bring their automaton creations to life. The end result: cool inventions that spring into motion with moving arms and legs when students crank the wheels!
