MAKERING PROGRAMS
Every day at Alameda Makering is unique, yet kids can consistently expect innovative activities, creative expression, and fun! Classes, workshops, 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.
AFTER-SCHOOL CLASSES
Sign up now! Join us for an afternoon of makering 1x per week! Our classes start after-school on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and run for 2-hours. Makering activities officially begin at 3:30pm, so young makers arriving from different schools won't miss out on the fun. Each class wraps up with a moment to celebrate creativity, perseverance, and new discoveries, helping kids feel proud of what they’ve learned and created.
WEEKEND WORKSHOPS
Sign up now! Our Weekend Workshops are the perfect way to try Makering—and a fun way for returning makers to keep on Makering! Each 3-hour workshop flows between our Maker’s Table and Maker’s Kitchen with hands-on craft and cooking projects inspired by the month’s theme. We’ll also head outside to our Maker’s Garden for fresh air and a trampoline break! Every young maker leaves with something they’ve made, learned, and feel proud of! With a new theme each month, come to one or come to them all!
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. 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 wrap up by reflecting on the day, and celebrating everyone’s creations.
