Coding and Minecraft Camps coming to Lexington

LEXINGTON, MA (May 12th, 2016) - Empow Studios has announced week-long Tech & Design Camps and Minecraft Camps in Newton for Summer 2016. These camps are being held at their home studios in Lexington Center.

At Tech & Design Camp, kids build exciting projects in Video Game Design, Robotics, Animation, 3D Modeling & Printing, Music Production, and more. Whether it’s building a working guitar made of LEGO MINDSTORMS, designing an action-packed video game to challenge friends with, or creating an animated mini-movie, the options are limitless and the learning doesn’t stop! Empow teaches the nuts & bolts behind these subjects, and campers use their imagination to make their project come alive.

Empow’s Minecraft Camp is the ultimate week-long learning adventure! These camps are tailored to all skill levels, whether your child is just starting out their explorations or already know their way around creepers. Empow starts by introducing campers to Redstone, a special kind of element that mimics electricity almost perfectly. Campers of nearly any skill level can have fun building circuit boards, and even making a very simple computer inside Minecraft. As they master Redstone skills, teachers offer challenges that teach key concepts in programming, design, electrical engineering, and architecture, all while using teamwork and social skills. It’s the perfect blend of fun, learning, and creativity.

In addition to Lexington, Empow will be running these Summer Camps in Back Bay, Belmont, Brookline, Cape Cod, Newton-Needham, and Westford. For all camp locations, please visit the Empow Camp Page.

In Empow’s home studio in Lexington, they host an After-School Club, weekend technology clubs, vacation & summer camps, one-day NanoCamps when schools are closed, birthday parties, and workshops. For more information about Empow Studios, please visit www.empow.me
