Web Design with HTML Workshop for Teens4:00 p.m.–6:00 p.m.Digital Meeting

Middle and high school students are invited to build coding skills as they create a website using HTML. Planned and led by experienced coders from the library’s Teen Advisory Board, this three-part workshop will teach skills useful for school now and your professional life later. The sessions will teach how to express yourself by coding your own website and help you understand the websites you use on a daily basis at a higher level.

Each day of the workshop builds on the other, so please sign up expecting to attend all three sessions. A small amount of “homework” will be expected between sessions. Space is limited. Sign up now at: http://bit.ly/SPL-webforteens

Registered students will receive Zoom access information the day before the first workshop session.
