The Octavia Project Summer Camp is a FREE summer camp based in Brooklyn for young women and trans, nonbinary, and/or gender non-conforming youth who will be in grades 6-8 next school year. Together we will create, explore, build, and have FUN in daily workshops that combine science, tech, art, and writing. We’ll also go on field trips that explore art & STEM in NYC. Whether you like to write stories, draw comics, or game, the Octavia Project welcomes you!
