It takes a village — and LOOK at this village! 👏🏾💚

Our After School Program wouldn't be what it is without community organizations willing to pour their time, talent and resources into our young people.

Our new program year begins Monday, September 14, 2026!

👧🏾🧒🏽 Ages 5–14

⏰ 3:30–6:00 PM

🤖 AI Isn’t Going Anywhere… So Why Not Learn It?

You can be curious about AI. You can be skeptical of it. You might even be a little afraid of it. 😅 But one of the best things you can do is learn about it!

Our community partners at Choppin It Up in the City are hosting a FREE, beginner-friendly AI Fundamentals class designed for people who want to understand what all this AI talk is actually about — no tech expertise required!

📅 Thursday, September 18
⏰ 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM
📍 SVRC Marketplace
203 S. Washington Ave., Saginaw, MI 48607
💲 FREE CLASS

Participants will learn:
🤖 AI basics and how large language models (LLMs) work
💬 How to use free AI chat tools
✍🏾 How to write better, more effective prompts
🍳 AND see AI put to work during a live AI-powered cooking demonstration!

We love seeing opportunities that help our community become more comfortable with technology instead of feeling left behind by it. Whether you've never used AI before, don't understand what it does, or you've been wondering what all the hype is about — this class is for you.

As Choppin It Up says: You can fear it, or you can learn it. We choose to learn! 💙

👉 Register at Choppin It Up in the City⁠�
Tag somebody who needs to stop side-eyeing AI and come learn what it can actually do! 😂🤖
