Art/Code/XR
So, Codespa is amazing. You learn how to code and make virtual reality games and art at a magical retreat, aimed at people who are underrepresented in tech. In between classes and hands-on, guided learning, students (and teachers!) get to practice yoga & meditation, enjoy amazing food and take in the gorgeous surroundings of Mt. Madonna, CA.
