AMERICAN COMPUTER & ROBOTICS MUSEUM

Community Events

March 10, 2026 @ 5:00pm - 6:30pm

Join us in the IdeaLab for some hands-on high-tech crafting using the principles of computing. This week, we're making winking, blinking firefly jars. No fireflies needed!

Two sessions to choose from: Tuesday March 10 or Thursday March 12

$45 per participant. For creative kids in grades 4 to 8.

NOTE: This class requires a neopixel light strip (included) and a Micro:Bit microcontroller. Already have a Micro:bit from a previous session? Great, bring it along! Need to get one? You can purchase it for $25 at check-out or at museum when you arrive for class.
