**Young Creators Embrace Technology at Jefferson Rec Center**

Pittsburgh, PA – Kids at Jefferson Recreation Center are unleashing their creativity through arts and crafts with a technological twist. As part of CitiParks' Rec2Tech program, the young participants combined cardboard and Scrib3D pens to design and build miniature houses.

In addition to their hands-on crafting session, the children received their first introduction to 3D printing technology. The program aims to merge creative exploration with tech education, and the kids are showing impressive results with their imaginative projects.

The event highlights the ongoing efforts of Pittsburgh's CitiParks to engage the community in learning opportunities that inspire innovation and creativity.
