MAKERS answers the question, "How does it happen?" and empowers YOU to do it yourself! With an emphasis on process, campers learn and tackle various skills within favorite subjects: animation, legos, coding, even graphic design. Dive deeper into whatever sparks your interest, with eight weeks from which to choose, each dedicated to hands-on understanding of a unique specialty.

The Programming Day runs 9am - 4pm, Monday - Friday

We encourage you to register at least 2 weeks before the first meeting day.

Weeks 1-7 located on the University of Portland campus at 5000 N. Willamette Blvd., week 8 will take place in-community at OHSU.
