Why iCode Princeton 💛 this event (and how we plug in ✨)

Art and tech are best friends. While you’re browsing pottery and hand-poured candles, we’re cheering on the creativity behind each design—the same maker mindset we teach in our studios. For families inspired by the Village, iCode Princeton offers hands-on STEAM paths that turn ideas into real products:

🎨 From Market Stall to Maker Lab

Pair this art & design outing with our 2D/3D Design & 3D Printing tracks—kids sketch, model in CAD, and print their creations (think ornaments, keychains, display stands for art).

🤖 When Art Meets Tech

For tech-curious makers, we layer creativity with Coding & Robotics—animate designs, code LED effects for displays, or build a mini robotic gift kiosk (yes, seriously!).
