Programming is communicating your ideas to a computer in a language designed to make that communication easy and intuitive. By learning this language, you and your students can create almost anything and get a head start on a major 21st Century Skill. At Code Naturally, we emphasize self-paced curriculum and collaborative support to help students excel at coding and creating.
COLLABORATION Learning to code is a team sport. Students quickly learn the value of working together to fix bugs and to pursue large project ideas.
CRITICAL THINKING Students must understand what they’re trying to get the computer to do before they can communicate it.
CREATIVITY Students have creative freedom over how they choose to fulfill project requirements and can always code their own projects for fun.

We are an all ages art studio located in the Historic Redwood Village of Aptos. Here you will find a range of classes for kids and adults, with small class sizes and both indoor and outdoor environments to learn and create. Art Factory instructors bring cross curricular experience to art education, using art as a medium to explore everything from history to mathematics to science. With an emphasis on art history, technique and creative expression, students will develop or expand their art practice. Use our classes to enrich your child’s education or for your own creative retreat.

Join us at The Art Factory for our 12th year of extraordinary art camp! Due to Covid-19, we are running a virtual program this year.
Camps are 1 week long and meet for 2 hours per day, June 8 through August 28. We have countless themes for three separate age groups: 5-7, 8-12, 12-17
FAQs:
• Will camps meet in person?
No. Not until further notice. All classes are on zoom. Wait, wait… read on!

Don’t worry, we have personal contact instruction down! Our classes exude fun, creativity and innovation! It’s the next best thing to being in the studio with us.
• Can we still count on the small class sizes that we love about your in-studio camps, even though we are online?
Of course! We believe in quality contact instruction and will continue to bring our students dynamic, engaging content with a very personal touch.
• Are classes recorded?
No way! Every one of our 49 different camps is live, fully interactive with 2 hour meetings that will fly by each day.
• Can a 5-7 year old sit through 2 hour classes?
