Youth Programming

education matters

Spark Studios is a STEAM-based afterschool program whose motto is to “Try New Things, Get Messy, and Have Fun.” The experiences that Spark Studios provides, prepare students to be creative, collaborative, and comfortable with stepping outside of their comfort zone. This is vital because studies show that most students will step into careers and jobs that haven’t even been created yet. Students ages 8 -14 come to find their place. As we live in this everchanging world, we must prepare our kids for success, and Spark Studios can do just that for students of all different backgrounds. See our payment options below!
