GIANT Spring Residency: An Epic Week of Creative STEM Innovations!


  • The GIANT Room 26 West 23rd Street (4th floor) New York, NY, 10001 United States (map)

DESCRIPTION: Half, full or extended days of dreaming, making, coding, and epic fun!

For creative kids with GIANT dreams who dare to act on them! We’ll get into smaller collaborative groups based on our age, interests, ideas and skills we’d like to work on. Our kid residents will work on the most epic GIANT projects from the messiest kitchen science experiments to the coolest gadgets made with electronics, fun DIY arcade games, and futuristic augmented reality coding projects! They will then be challenged to take these projects even further and add their own marks on them. Will they think like a maker and imagine a whole new way of prototyping their ideas? Will they think like an inventor and try to solve real world problems with their inventions? Will they think like an engineer and make their prototypes more efficient, faster, or economical? Will they think like a storyteller and create animations or small stage talks to share about their projects? Or perhaps, they’ll think like a scientist and engage in questioning the world and conducting experiments to find answers! The GIANT Room team of expert instructors will guide students to think, create, and share.

Recommended for ages 3-12 (Children younger than 5 year old need to attend with a caregiver)
