Remake Learning Days-KC

Remake Learning Days is a celebration of innovative experiences and opportunities for youth to develop their sense of creativity, perseverance and curiosity. The festival features events and activities hosted by a variety of organizations, such as schools, museums, libraries, after school organizations, early child care centers, universities, media centers, tech startups and more.  These experiences are designed to be relevant and engaging for youth of all ages and their families, caregivers and educators. The majority of events are free and in person.

Events are organized by different learning themes such as: Arts, Maker, Outdoor Learning, Science, Technology and Youth Voice. Families and youth can search events by  date/time, location, learning theme, age group (pre-K through high school) and more on the Kansas City page of the Remake Learning Days website.

Be part of the fun and show how your organization helps Kansas City’s kids get ready for the future by hosting an event at your site or with a partner.
