Maker Party North East is the chance to get your hands dirty with code!

Why this event will be awesome

Mentors will show you some quick and easy tools to play around with websites, apps, music and more - it's the chance for kids to learn something new, be creative with tech and have fun! Since kids are now being taught computing at school, this is a great chance to experience how much fun can be had by learning computing skills.

This event will be great for:

• Parents keen to explore tech with their children
• Teachers, or anyone interested in teaching others, who wants to see fun tools for learning
• Anyone interested in running a maker party themselves

What we'll be making

• Remixing the web with X-Ray Goggles
• Web pages with Thimble
• Native web videos with Popcorn Maker
• Mobile web apps with AppMaker
• Music with Sonic Pi

• This event is a family experience so children must be accompanied at all times. There must be no more than 3 children per 1 adult.
