WHERE CURIOSITY MEETS CREATIVITY

Future Stars STEAM Exploration Camp invites campers to explore science, technology, engineering, art, and math in a collaborative, hands-on makerspace environment. Each week, campers dive into a variety of STEAM subjects, discovering new interests and building on skills they’ve already learned.

Every week of Future Stars STEAM Exploration Camp is unique, and features new projects and activities. There are always new competitions and cooperative challenges that we have carefully balanced for all skill levels. Returning campers can advance their abilities and combine disciplines in creative ways. 

STEAM Exploration Camp subjects include 3D Printing, 3D Sculpting, Coding Concepts, Minecraft Education, Roblox Studio, Video Game Design, and more. Campers will explore an assortment of fun and educational gadgets to use throughout the week, including Spheros, Drones, 3D Printers, and more.
