AI Creativity Labs

Learn, create, and present with emerging AI technologies

AI Creativity Labs are hands-on learning experiences that guide participants through a complete creative and learning arc with emerging AI technologies.

Each Lab is designed around three core phases: learning, creative exploration, and presentation. Participants are introduced to selected AI tools and concepts, engage creatively through guided artistic activities, and then prepare and present their work in a facilitated showcase environment.

The Labs are offered in both student-focused and adult learning contexts, including schools, community spaces, nonprofits, cultural institutions, libraries, and workplace settings. Rather than emphasizing technical mastery or production output, the Labs focus on understanding how AI tools shape creative processes, decision-making, and expression.

By culminating in a presentation or showcase, AI Creativity Labs help participants build not only AI literacy and creative confidence, but also communication, reflection, and presentation skills. No prior technical experience is required. The goal is thoughtful engagement, shared learning, and confidence in navigating emerging technologies.
