    Meet Marie...Geek Chic Camp Counselor!

    Hello, my name is Marie and I am currently a senior at St. Mary's Academy, an all-girls school in downtown Portland. This summer, I had the fantastic opportunity to be a camp counselor for Saturday Academy during the Geek Chic Camp hosted at St. Mary's Academy. Being a student at St. Mary's Academy, I have learned that strong and empowered female role models are essential in maintaining an influx of young girls with desires to receive a higher education and explore their interests.

    An Alumnus Returns to Animation Academy...as Instructor

    When longtime Animation Academy instructor Sharon Niemczyk was unable to teach for us this summer, she found someone to take her place. She didn't pick just anyone from her professional circle; she chose her former Animation Academy student Mac Kerman. The combination of her guidance and his passion for giving back to Saturday Academy by inspiring the next generation of animators made for an unforgettable week. Read on to hear it in Mac's own words. Be sure to view Exquisite Morph, the final group project referred to in Mac's post below (link at end of post).

    My ASE Experience

    Here at Saturday Academy, we have just wrapped up our 2018 Apprenticeships in Science & Engineering (ASE) Symposium. At the end of the summer we reflect on our experiences, ASE interns and Saturday Academy staff alike. This blog post from 2017 ASE intern Kaylee Vasquez recollects her summer one year ago at the Portland VA Medical Center, and helped us think about the big picture after a summer of successful ASE internships.
