    Creating Short Comics Saturday Academy Online Class

    Instructor Highlight: Kelly Fry

    Drawing is a language of its own that can help people of all ages think creatively. A 2018 study shows that drawing is a more powerful tool for memory recall than simply reading or writing. The arts are an integral part of Saturday Academy's programs and spread across many disciplines from medicine to biology to math!

    Let’s Explore, Build and Create Together this Summer

    Summer learning still looks different in 2021. Slowly, schools and businesses are transitioning back to in-person with the availability of COVID-19 vaccines. We are happy to be continuing to offer virtual learning, and are extremely excited that there will be in-person offerings for our students as well.

    Letter from Our Executive Director - April 2021

    Spring has arrived! There is nothing like warm weather and sunshine to make me want to try a little chemistry. I’ve included a handout and instructions you can download below on how to do an easy elephant toothpaste reaction. This clever reaction is a beautiful demonstration of how a catalyst can speed up a reaction and create a glorious mess. I encourage you to try the experiment al fresco and watch the rainbow of foam brighten up your day!
