The Bloomsburg’s Children’s Museum in collaboration with the Central Susquehanna Intermediate Unit (CSIU) is bringing their popular After School Maker Camp to the Milton Maker Space, located at 139 S Front St, Milton. This program is geared towards children aged 6-12. Programs will run from February 18, 2022 until January 20, 2023. Maker Camp is free thanks to the PA Smart Grant from the CSIU.

“We are funded through a PA Smart Grant written by CSIU. This is a collaborative project, and the money is designed to reward computer science and STEM programs for students K-12 in the Northumberland County Region,” said Colleen Epler-Ruths from CSIU.

Events will be on the third Friday of the month, 6-7 p.m. The Bloomsburg Children’s Museum started an After School Maker Camp in 2020. This program combines fun, creative tactics with educational science experiments. The after-school camp is a spin-off of the Museum’s wildly popular Summer Maker Camp.
