The Studio, Meeting Room

Learn the basics of coding using an Ozobot Evo and constrcut a 50cm path for it to race on!

The Ozobot Evo is a line-following mini robot that you can program in one of two ways: 1) by using colored markers, or 2) by utilizing block coding from a computer. Patrons will create a coded -line racetrack for their Ozobot, using computer codes concepts in their track. Program is limited to 17 participants. 

This program was designed for 4th grade through 12th grade, but younger children may attend if an adult is present to assist them. Children in sixth grade or younger must be directly supervised by a responsible parent, guardian, or caregiver while in the Studio. Supervising adults do not need to register for the program. 

Space is limited: Register in advance to reserve your spot and receive reminders. Registration will guarantee your seat until the event begins.
