Step into the future of creativity with StreetCode Academy!

Join us in the heart of East Palo Alto for the Culture & Tech Pop-Up—a vibrant, hands-on event that brings together music, design, and storytelling through interactive technology. Whether you’re tech-curious or already a digital native, this is your chance to explore, create, and connect with your community.

🎧 Music & Tech – Make your own beats, try out DJ-style mixing, or experiment with vocal effects in a mini sound booth.
🎨 Design & Tech – Create your own logo, digital art, or stickers using iPads and easy-to-use design tools.
🎤 Storytelling & Tech – Record a video, snap a photo series, or play with AI prompts to tell your unique story.

✨ Designed for all ages, this pop-up is fast-paced, family-friendly, and full of creative surprises. No experience needed—just bring your curiosity!

🎶 Plus: Music, food, and good vibes all day long.

Free and open to the community. Come through and get creative with us!
