MAKERING PROGRAMS

Every day at Alameda Makering is unique, yet kids can consistently expect innovative activities, creative expression, and fun! Classes and camp days are filled with ambitious, age-appropriate, and fun maker projects, which could include crafts, art, gardening, cooking, design, science, music, life skills, sewing, carpentry, or a combination of these. Each project incorporates the safe use of various tools, integrates upcycled materials through a range of creative techniques, and promotes the development of life skills. Projects are demonstrated using best practices, while individual creativity is celebrated. All necessary supplies and materials are included.

SUMMER CAMPS 2025

Sign-up now! Join us for a week of exciting makering activities and fun during SUMMER! We have multiple weeks available with a variety of themes and activities. Our day kicks off with a morning maker project, followed by a brief mid-morning break to relax or jump on the trampoline, and then a cooking project. At lunchtime, we venture to one of the nearby parks for a picnic and some physical activity! The afternoon session may continue with the morning project or introduce a new one. We end the afternoon by cleaning up the Makerspaces and reflecting on the day.

SCHOOL BREAK CAMPS

Sign up now! Join us for exciting makering activities and fun during a “break” that coincides with a single-day or week-long school closure. We kick-off each day with a morning maker project, followed by a brief mid-morning break to relax or jump on the trampoline, and then a cooking project. At lunchtime, we venture to one of the nearby parks for a picnic and some physical activity! The afternoon session may continue with the morning project or introduce a new one. We end the afternoon by cleaning up the Makerspaces and reflecting on the day.
