Queens Public Library STEM Boot Camp

About

Queens Public Library runs free STEM Boot Camp programs at branches across Queens for kids in grades 6, 7, and 8. The boot camp covers coding, robotics, electronics, and other STEM topics through structured weekly sessions, typically running over the summer in 5-week blocks on Mondays and Tuesdays from 3-4:30pm. Free with library card; spaces are limited and registration is per-branch. Beyond the formal boot camp, individual library branches run smaller drop-in STEM workshops and clubs throughout the year. Excellent low-cost option for families that want introductory STEM exposure without committing to private-school pricing. Schedule and branch availability change seasonally — check the QPL website for current programming.
