The Thingamajigs Education Program brings children, artists, teachers and science together through sound experiments designed for K-8 schools. Teaching Artists work with children throughout the year in hands-on instrument building, music appreciation and the study of sound produced through made and found objects.

Camp510 Summer Camp

Thingamajigs is a proud a partner of CAMP 510, and thrilled to continue bringing more exciting and diverse arts opportunities to youth in communities throughout Oakland and the Bay Area.

Join bay area’s favorite, values-driven summer day-camp for ages 6 to 14. In the spirit of D-I-T (DO IT TOGETHER), young creative minds are equipped with the right tools and guided through unique projects by professional artists and makers.

In-school Residencies

Kids love school! Yes, if lessons are disguised as fun experiments. Teaching Artists collaborate with schools throughout the year, and conduct weekly workshops. These art workshops grow the scientific temper and nurture the artistic spirit in children, through hands-on sound experiments with found objects. Kids develop small interactive instruments and often participate in large-scale assembly demonstrations.
