For these 90 minute afterschool workshops, students socialize with other techies and either play a game together or make a simple tech project in a structured way led by a teacher and social worker. This is open to all levels and is a great way to connect with peers! All workshops are currently virtual due to covid-19.
During the summer, students ages 7-21 learn various tech skills during weeklong workshops.
Our free parent workshops are welcome to all family members regardless if the student takes classes with TKU. Hear from speakers in various fields and receive knowledge and resources.
