A TIMELY COMMUNITY PROGRAM
Make new technology feel relevant—not overwhelming.
Residents are hearing about AI everywhere, but many have not had a clear, low-pressure way to explore it. A guided workshop replaces guesswork with understandable examples.
The experience supports curiosity without assuming everyone wants to become a power user. Participants can learn what AI is, where it may help, and where caution matters.
CURIOUS IS ENOUGH
No technical identity required.
Participants do not need to think of themselves as “good with computers.” They only need a question, an interest, or a task they would like to explore.

A natural fit for

SAFE, THOUGHTFUL USE
Smart use means staying curious and careful.
