HANDS-ON S.T.E.A.M WORKSHOPS
We have developed an interactive outdoor or virtual learning experience for Black and Brown students. The program provides four (4) different hands-on S.T.E.A.M activities in a green space (ideally) or virtually allowing students, schools, and community members to enjoy learning in a new way. Virtual programs will be supplied kits ahead of time. Our programs are designed around the national S.T.E.A.M standards, always incorporate the Expressive Arts, and touch on topics like Environmental Justice, Social Justice, and Holistic Health & Wellness. Our goal is to provide thought provoking programming to dismantle the misrepresentations of blacks in S.T.E.A.M fields. We want to educate students on the endless possibilities they have for their futures, give them a voice and platform to be valued and protected, and provide a creative and innovative approach to virtual and in-person learning. These programs are customizable. They can be (1) event or a series of programs.

Arts For Kids Coders
By the end of this course, students will be able to develop complex programs with the Block
Canvas and rewrite simple block programs in JavaScript. Students will demonstrate a mastery of
block programming by manipulating sensors, loops, and conditionals. Students oriented toward Artistic expression will follow a different track with a completely different robot that operates the exact same way other robot. Accordingly, all knowledge learned is completely transferable due to the software, and operations covered. The only difference is the robot used: round vs a rover type device. The round robot can be dipped in water paint, programmed, and students will be able to create their Art using code and creativity using the same functions used with the other robots and hardware.

Music Composition Through Technology
Feel like a professional producer by learning how to use a web-based music production program that allows even non-musicians to create music. This program works on all computer operating systems (pcs/macs) and syncs with mobile devices (android/iphone) as well. Students will learn how to arrange and edit tracks, along with basic production skills such as adding automation, equalization (EQ), compression, and reverb to add a unique identity to their songs. By the end of the residency, each student would have recorded an original music composition in a genre of their choosing. Students will also learn to create their own podcasts. Learn about this exciting computer program and how you can incorporate it into your curriculum to integrate technology and the arts.

What's In Your Hand Digital Photography Workshop
The mobile phone has become the new “vox populi,” the voice of the people. It is an indispensable tool that we use to document our daily lives and experiences. The objective of the “What’s In Your Hand” workshop is to use the cell phone to create still-life assemblage art with objects that are important in your personal life and history. Students will create a narrative by placing flat and three-dimensional objects in their hand and photographing the composition with a cell phone.
The workshop will experiment with available light, flash, sunlight, and black and white images. We will also explore editing techniques with the phones editing system.
This remote workshop is offered on the Zoom platform, and it is an excellent arts project for teenagers and adults. All materials are supplied by the participants.
