Youth Technology Labs are located in the Youth Center building 500 and School-age Services building 693. Each lab is equipped with 15 high speed Internet accessible computers for educational and entertainment purposes. We offer training, classes, and workshops in multi-media through digital photography, movie making, digital music and web design. There are two new Boys and Girls Club of America programs offered in both centers - RoboTech and ClayTech. These programs not only incorporate learning the steps involved in understanding these state of the art studies, but also guide students in the development of their own works of art. 

Youth Division: 6-9 and 10-12 Age Groups
Teen Division: 13-15 and 16-18 Age Groups

ClayTech Claymation is a form of stop-motion animation that uses clay characters and props. This fun, hands-on introduction to animation will teach you to create storyboards, build characters, and film and edit your own movie. Even if you’ve never made a video, you can create your own claymation movie.

RoboTech Robotics may seem difficult, but the most important thing to know about the RoboTech program is that it's easy, fun and anyone can do it! You can build and program your own robot using the simple steps of this program and a Lego Mindstorms kit.

The Club Tech Digital Arts Festivals are back! This year's theme is "The Nature of Design." Club members are asked to explore nature’s beauty to find what photographers, film makers, musicians and designers borrow from the natural world to create their art.
