Today: Digital Discovery Workshops for Ages 6-8, Females and Gender-Expansive Youth at Alum Rock Libary.
Join us for a free, 1-day Digital Discovery Workshop at the Alum Rock Branch Library—designed for curious young minds ages 6-8. Through hands-on projects, participants will explore exciting STEAM topics including artificial intelligence, digital design, and coding.
Using iPads, robots, and other interactive tech tools, participants will build digital creativity and tech skills in a welcoming, supportive environment.
Please note that while our girls and gender-expansive programs are designed to support underrepresented youth, they do not exclude male-identifying participants. These efforts are part of our broader commitment to ensuring everyone has access to meaningful learning opportunities in coding, STEM, and computer science.
