About this organization
Mission
Junior Center provides programs which support and enrich the K through 12 art and science curriculum in over 300 elementary and secondary school classrooms throughout Oakland and the East Bay.
About
ON-SITE ACTIVITIES: The Junior Center delivers multiple low-cost and no-cost program offerings through visiting hours of its five interactive learning spaces and after-school classes and workshops. Throughout the year we hosted over 6,200 visitors and 127 students aged 2 - 14 attended hands-on arts and science exploration classes. Using a creative youth development approach, content includes community building, social and emotional learning strategies, and 21st century skill building. Admission to the center is suggested donation with no family turned away for lack of funds and fees are on a sliding scale. Additionally, three free family days showcased our offerings to new and returning families.
