Learn & Explore
Hands-on creative labs for every age, skill level, and spark of curiosity
Big Uppa Sky’s Learn & Explore workshops blend creativity, technology, and storytelling into hands-on experiences that help people of all ages discover what they can make. These aren’t sit-and-watch workshops — they’re jump-in-and-try sessions where learners build, tinker, imagine, and create something of their own.
No experience is needed.
No pressure.
Just curiosity, encouragement, and the freedom to try new things.
Big Uppa Sky Studios brings a mix of art, technology, media, and storytelling to schools, libraries, borough spaces, community centers, and anywhere people gather to explore.
