2023 - ECC Kids’ College brings ballet, videography, and firefighting

Elgin Community College’s summer Kids’ College returns in June with back-by-popular-demand classes and several new ones. Children ages 5 to 16 can find something that sparks their interest and feeds their passion at elgin.edu/kidscollege.

“We've seen a lot of renewed interest in in-person kids' programming coming out of the last few years,” said Tim Whitney, director of corporate and community education. “We're very excited about new Kids’ College partnerships with leading community organizations like the Gail Borden Library's Digital Media Lab, Integrity Dance Studio, the Illinois Rail Museum, National Karate, and the University of Illinois Extension.”

New to the Kids’ College catalog is Firefighting 101, Phone Photography, Lights, Camera, Action, and various dance classes. Returning favorites include coding, drawing, STEAM exploration, photography, music, and more.
