MakerPlace

MakerPlace

MakerPlace blends together science, technology, engineering, art, and math in a space centered around creativity and endless possibility.

The basis of all scientific endeavors is the cycle of curiosity, tinkering, discovery, mistakes and problem-solving. These skills are vital to our 21st century workforce as we collaborate to solve real-world problems. MakerPlace allows children and families to develop these important next generation skills as you work together to engineer your own unique creation with the help our experienced educators.

Our MakerPlace operates on a flexible schedule and can be opened upon request.
