As a community resource, we also welcome educational partnerships focused on creating consistent and ongoing STEAM experiences for every learner.

Summer STEAM Camps

STEAM camps are run by Summer at Barstow, a Kansas City Favorite that offers hundreds of adventures for every age, interest, schedule and budget. Experiences offered at IDEA Space include 3D Printing, Comic Book Creators, PC Gaming, Modern Quilting, Drone Building, Virtual Reality and more.

AI Scholars Summer Program

Artificial intelligence is the defining technology of our times. Will you be ready for it? This summer, students can prepare themselves with hands-on AI experience at an intensive program taught by instructors from Stanford and MIT. AI Scholars is a pre-college enrichment program that exposes curious students to artificial intelligence tools and technology through in-person classes. In Kansas City, it's offered exclusively at IDEA Space and open to every area student in grades 8-12.

The Inspirit AI Program

Inspirit AI was created to help students of all interests to understand and apply Artificial Intelligence to improve the world. What do self-driving cars, Alexa, ChatGPT and iPhone's face recognition technology have in common? What's next? And how can you apply AI skills in your college and career pursuits?
