So STEAM, so Seabury
Months before Covid was a blip on the radar, I saw this wonderful short film called, Caine’s Arcade. This kid was such a Seabury kid and I knew that this was a project that our kids would LOVE and could dive deeply into. The kid in the film, Caine, would spend all summer designing, creating, and building arcade games out of cardboard and items he found at his dad’s auto part store. Seabury kids loved the video and were instantly excited to make their own games. We held a very small arcade (it was not yet dubbed the Artcade) in what was then our lunch room. It was a success.
Fast forward a few years, and in our first real in-person year post-pandemic, we came back to the arcade and it was named the “Artcade." It was the second time around for some of these kids, you could see the difference in their designs and presentations.
