Scratch is a free programming language and online community that makes it easy for anyone, even kids, to create interactive stories, animations, games and more. It's fun and easy-to-learn so sign up for this workshop today!

Scratch helps young people learn to think creatively, reason systematically, and work collaboratively — essential skills for life in the 21st century.

The ability to code computer programs is an important part of literacy in today’s society. When people learn to code in Scratch, they learn important strategies for solving problems, designing projects, and communicating ideas.

You'll be able to make your own game in just minutes with Scratch. And the best part is that you can share them with others on the website or download them onto your computer.

This workshop will show you everything from coding basics like loops and variables all the way through advanced concepts like sprites and sound effects. The possibilities are endless!
