Summer Camps - Santa Monica @ DD Studio
UPDATE: We are monitoring the Safer at Home guidelines and will be prepared to change our Summer Camps to ONLINE — if and when we need to. We would love nothing more than to offer our summer camps as an in-person experience, but will adapt if necessary.
Digital Dragon’s summer camp program is for any kids ages 7-16 interested in making their own 3D video games, programming a microcomputer, producing music, advancing their computer programming skills, producing and shooting YouTube videos, short films and music videos, and taking their Minecraft expertise to the next level, all while having fun!
Our instructors are highly skilled and seasoned in the tech and STEAM fields they teach. Our summer camp curriculum is updated yearly to reflect what’s the most current in the ever-changing world of technology.
