Intrepid Museum presents its 3nd Annual Virtual Youth Summit on Saturday, June 12, 11am-7pm (Eastern Time).  This is a FREE virtual conference around the theme of "Transforming HOPE into ACTION."  Attendees will be able to participate in concurrently diverse workshops, presentations and panel sessions. Through HOPE and ACTION, they’re amplifying youth voices in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, the arts and math) and civics.

This event is most appropriate for ages 14-21, however all are welcome to join.  Participants will connect with each other by sharing dialogue and their own ideas and analyzing/questioning the world to come up with solutions for important issues. Intrepid Museum encourages all attendants to participate, whether presenting your own projects or learning from your peers.

These last two years continue to mark the recognition of intersectionality in issues of racism, equity, access, innovation, politics, public health, STEAM and more. The fight and brave discussion for change continues to be led by teens and young people, empowered professionals and youth-serving cultural organizations.

All Access Maker Camp is a fun week of exploring the Intrepid Museum, solving problems, experimenting with new tools and technology, and designing projects! This camp is specifically for children ages 8 –14 with developmental disabilities, including autism.

The camp provides an in-depth learning opportunity for campers to practice social-emotional skills, including problem-solving, communication and collaboration. Campers try out design challenges related to the ship, aircraft and space, and they go behind the scenes to meet with experts.

All staff and interns are specially trained in working with children with disabilities in the museum setting. Visual schedules, illustrated instructions, multisensory opportunities and clear expectations help campers transition into the week, focus on the tasks at hand and have fun. Campers learn about and use a wide range of materials, both low tech (LEGOs, clay, foil, craft supplies) and high tech (robotics kits, computer-assisted design software and 3D printers), as they solve problems, experiment and invent.
