Second Sky is such a cool space! A description of what are from their website "Second Sky is a community hub with an adventure playground, event space, food and beverage destination, immersive digital environment, and STEAM support center for after-school and micro-school students." I take my daughter there for the Sunny Studio art classes and we get to enjoy the Second Sky community space afterwards. The space is quite large as is still in the process of being developed with the help of volunteers and community donations. As of now, the space it like a large warehouse....that is air conditioned! There are tables to sit and hag out, a concessions/snack stand and various interactive indoor activities, such as scooters, a cozy corner that is like a little library with books and couches, digital art and S.T.E.A.M. interactive exhibits. Outside they have the adventure playground that is really incredible! It's also a non-profit with the goal to create a space that serves the whole community. Their big picture, long-term plan is amazing. I've copied/pasted this following information from their digital booklet:
"A shaded outdoor adventure playground for hands-on S.T.E.A.M. learning across multiple ages.
A cafe with coffee, pastries, fast casual lunch and dinner, beer, wine and healthy soft drinks.
A digital art venue.
An event space with regular programming.
A community space for meetings, rehearsals, clubs, and groups.
A co-working spot for remote and self-employed workers.
Multiple Experiences in One Place
Putting these attractions in one large beautiful space lets people spend more time together instead of driving from destination to destination. By saving families time and keeping all ages occupied and engaged, we open up opportunities for child learning, homework help, career development, casual socialization and special events for all ages."
Best of all, enjoying the space and playground is free! read more
