Remake Learning Days-KC

Be part of Remake Learning Days KC 2023!

Remake Learning Days is a regional festival for the future of work and learning that turns the Kansas City area into an open house learning laboratory, featuring fun and free events for youth of all ages. Families can come together to experience making, new technology, art workshops, science experiments, robotics, outdoor learning and more from May 1-15 all across the Kansas City region.

Remake Learning Days-Kansas City focuses on our region but is connected to a national conversation with partners like Remake Learning Network, PBS KIDS and Digital Promise. Remake Learning Days Across America took root in 17 regions across America in 2022.

About Remake Learning Days

Remake Learning Days Across America 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. In addition, there are Professional Development sessions for school, out-of-school, child care and non-traditional educators. 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 Across America website.
