On this bonus sponsored episode by the Grable Foundation, we're celebrating a Pittsburgh original. What if learning looked like meeting an alpaca, zip lining through a park, or building your first AR/VR game — and it was all free? Remake Learning Days is marking its 10th anniversary this year, and the festival has grown into something genuinely remarkable: 266 mostly free events, 240 organizations, and more than 50 school districts across Southwestern Pennsylvania, all opening their doors from May 1–23.


Yu-Ling Cheng, co-producer, and Stephanie Lewis, director of relationships at Remake Learning Days, join Executive Producer, Mallory Falk to talk  through what's happening this year, from archaeology at Fort Macintosh to downtown fishing to performing arts — and why families keep coming back. They also share how the festival has become a way for Pittsburgh families to discover resources right in their own backyard, and how you can find or even host an event at remakelearningdays.org.

Thank you for listening to this special bonus Sponsored Episode by the Grable Foundation. To learn about this episode sponsor visit Remakelearning.org and Grable.org,
