At Electric Sky, we host workshops to help you improve your practice as a creative artist, designer, or technologist. These hands-on workshops are for the most part tied to the theme (2024: Sun Wind Water), and some will encourage you to make something to add to our art show. Learn, connect with other creative folks, and share! Be sure to register in advance to save your spot in our workshops (see “add-ons” when registering), otherwise it is first come, first serve on site. Parents should attend with kids 14 and under, and should be within earshot of any age under 18.
