Making Waves is a hands-on STEM + Music after school program that provides a space for students to unleash their creativity while picking up some serious skills. Inspired by grade-level engineering, math, and science, plus everything fun from music class, students get to dream up, build, analyze and test out their own custom musical instruments. These once weekly eight-week sessions culminate in a share out of what the students created. Parents and caregivers are encouraged to attend and participate in the final session!
John Corkill, the Director of UChicago’s Percussion Ensemble, leads this innovative after school program.
