Upcoming Programs:
Saturday Workshops
Electric Girls is excited to launch this year's Saturday Workshops! Starting Sept. 21, Saturday Workshops are a 12-week program for girls to learn fundamental skills in electronics, design, computer programming, and fabrication. Girls will learn to solder, build circuits, code, design, and build their own take-home inventions!
Our Demo Day festival, the culminating presentation day, will be December 14th. This is a day to celebrate the girls' growth & showcase their hard work. They will be able to present their projects and teach their loved ones some of the skills they learned. So mark your calendar & invite everyone to come celebrate your girl(s)!
Scholarships are available here!
If you have any questions regarding scholarships or registrations, please reach out to Joan Lee, our Community Engagement Coordinator at joan@electricgirls.org.

Halloween Electric Workshops
Get prepped for Halloween by learning how to light-up your costume or any article of clothing, and support girls' STEM education at the same time! Learn a little about electronics and circuitry, and build an LED circuit of your very own. Then, we'll assist you in hot-gluing your circuit and LEDs to whatever you bring to the workshop, or you can take it home and do that part on your own. We have a team of Electric Girls staff and girls who are ready to help you learn and build!
SIP & SOLDER
Come create your very own electronic invention & learn how to solder it all together!
This is a great relaxed event to connect with our team, learn from some of our bright Electric Girls, and develop some new soldering skills.
Wine will be provided!
If you have any questions, please email contact@electricgirls.org
