FREE creative workshop for kids K-5 grade is next FREE creative workshop for kids K-5 grade is next Saturday, February 21st at 12noon. Yes — really. 🎨

If your child loves to draw, build, imagine, or take things apart just to see how they work, ELC Saturdays: Think Like a Designer is the place for them. Students in grades K–5 will rotate through hands-on creativity stations, mini design challenges, and guided making activities inside the designExplorr Experiential Learning Center. It’s not a lecture — it’s an afternoon of experimenting, creating, and leaving proud of something they made themselves.

Only a few spots are left.

ELC Saturdays is coming up — and this session is c ELC Saturdays is coming up — and this session is completely free.

We’re inviting K–5 students to spend the afternoon at the designExplorr Experiential Learning Center for Think Like a Designer, a hands-on experience filled with creative stations, mini design challenges, and fun building activities. It’s a chance for kids to explore their imagination, try new ideas, and walk away proud of something they made themselves — all in a welcoming, supportive space.

We keep the group small so every child gets attention, which means only 25 seats are available and they usually fill fast. If your child enjoys drawing, creating, or simply figuring out how things work, this is a great Saturday opportunity.

Design is all about iteration—learning from the past to build a better future. Thank you for being part of our community and helping us close the diversity gap in the creative industry, one sketch at a time.

Tonight, we celebrate the progress we’ve made together. See you in the new year to start our next big project! 🥂🎨
