Artist Engineers Hackathon (In Person)

Looking for a high-energy, engaging event for students at your school and in your community? Artist Engineers collaborates with schools, corporations, and nonprofits to plan, produce and facilitate half-day hackathon events.

During the event, students (ages 9-18) will learn how to create music with code using EarSketch, a free educational programming environment developed first at Georgia Tech. No prior coding knowledge or experience is required.

By the end of the Hackathon, students will have created their first remixes. Their music will be played during the live performance with special guest star Supernatural, acclaimed as the greatest freestyle rapper of all time.

  • Middle school and high school teachers in STEAM, computer science, music, or art interested in bringing a fun and unique learning experience to their schools.

  • Corporations looking for an innovative approach for making an impact in the community while inspiring volunteerism within their organizations.
