The Cumberland County Public Library is hosting a series of dynamic coding and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) programs tailored for people of all ages. The series, which runs from April through June, gives participants the chance to engage in hands-on activities designed to foster creativity, problem-solving skills and a passion for technology.
These programs aim to make technology education accessible and empower community members to explore the exciting world of coding and STEM fields. Highlighted programs include:
These programs will be held at various Cumberland County library branches and are provided by Code Ninjas. See a detailed schedule of events on the library calendar.
“We’re excited to offer these innovative programs to our community,” said Cumberland County
Public Library Director Faith Phillips in a press release. “ Opportunities like these provide valuable skills and experiences, helping bridge the digital divide and prepare individuals for success in an increasingly technology-driven world.”
The programs are made possible by funding from the federal Institute of Museum and Library
Services (IMLS) under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA), as administered by the State Library of North Carolina, a division of the Department of Natural and
Cultural Resources (IMLS grant number LS-252476-OLS-22).
