Mission Statement
Tynkertopia is a safe, welcoming space for students, teachers, parents, artists, crafters, inventors, makers, and tynkerers of any age. Our goal is to expand the creativity and inquiry skills of tynkerers by inviting curiosity, inspiring wonder, encouraging playfulness, and celebrating unique solutions.
Description
Tynkertopia is a place filled with opportunities to play, invent and launch imaginations into overdrive! Designed for kids, parents, teachers, and community members, Tynkertopia will build STEM/STEAM skills and encourage independent thinking, questioning, inquiring, designing, building, exploring and tinkering!
Founded by veteran educator, Dr. Alice Christie, Tynkertopia invites students, teachers, and parents (in particular) and any resident of Coconino County to come to a welcoming space to play, experiment, learn, and grow as a tynkerer! There you will find a myriad of recycled and new materials with which to work, a dedicated workspace, workshops and classes, facilitators to guide your progress, and encouragement to follow your creative dreams.
