What if the most creative minds channeled their focus into solving the most impactful problems of today? Imagine if we could apply the ingenuity that powers the most profound technology available today into solving problems for others.
On Saturday March 16, 2019, New Roads School will host a middle school and high school hackathon to create new ideas in entertainment. Experts and students from all disciplines, skill levels, and locations will meet to build new creative applications around gaming, music and entertainment.
For 11 hours, these hackers, experts, and mentors will be together to bring their ideas to fruition. At the end of the event, they will have the opportunity to present their solutions to the judges and the world.
We are happy to partner with sponsors looking to assist our education outreach. Engineers or volunteers can sign up to help out during the event via our eventbrite site.
