Annual Celebration

An evening benefiting Bold Idea

Each year, Bold Idea hosts the Annual Celebration to raise funds to support its after-school computer science education programs for students attending under-resourced schools in Dallas. This year’s event is a throwback to the 8-bit video game era of the ‘80’s with classic arcade games and even student video games to try. Join us for dinner, drinks, a silent auction, and music while celebrating an impactful year of after-school Coding Clubs!

Proceeds from the event benefit Bold Idea and our work that supports 15 out-of-school Coding Club sites and over 250 students in Dallas with impactful computer science education and mentoring.
