      Online After School Winter Programs Start January 18, 2021! 

      STEAM Studio sessions are designed for students to explore and develop their interests and passions, regardless of past academic performance. You’ll find no request for grades and no entrance exam. We ask only that students come open to the prospect of learning more and enjoying their experience. 

      STEAM Studio sessions are designed for at-home, after-school learning, but we can also bring STEAM Studio to online classrooms. Email us at niusteam@niu.edu to learn more about custom group programming.
