Scratch Day in New York City is a gathering where people of all ages will come together to meet other Scratchers, share projects and experiences, and learn more about Scratch.

The activities will begin at 8:30am and continue until 4pm. We are in the process of creating a schedule based on the proposals submitted for workshops, presentations, or discussions. There will be workshops and presentations geared to both experienced Scratch users and novices; teachers, parents, and students of all ages.
 
What to bring:
*Flash drives for sharing work with others
*Computers
*Younger kids who are using Scratch or interested in learning about Scratch
* Families
* Enthusiasm!
