Maker Days *Spaces limited; call 850-664-1261 for availability*

Our student scientists explore science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics during hands-on, creative workshops. Maker Days gives learners the opportunity to create, construct, and make something new at each session.

Maker Days is designed as a drop-off program, and as such it allows many of our home school students to interact with our educators and other students in a classroom setting. These classes are designed to engage, stimulate, encourage, and challenge young children with hands on exploration using a typical class arrangement.   

​First Tuesday of Each Month

9:00 am-12:00 pm

​

Cost $20 Members/$25 Non-Members

Please fill out our registration form here and either email it to business-office@ecscience.org or bring it with you to the workshop. DUE TO INCREASED DEMAND FOR HOMESCHOOL PROGRAMS, YOUR CHILD'S SPOT IN THE WORKSHOP IS NOT CONFIRMED UNTIL PAYMENT IS PROCESSED.
