More About Emoti-Con

Emoti-Con, founded in 2009, is NYC's annual showcase for young designers, engineers, artists, gamers, programmers, activists and multimedia storytellers who believe in digital innovation as a tool for positive change in the world around them.

Emoti-Con is a culminating celebration of the creative work produced all year at the in- and after-school programs of the Hive NYC learning network, and at public schools participating in CS4ALL NYC and other DOE programs.

The event has been developed through a unique collaboration between NYC youth-serving organizations, including CS4ALL, Global Kids, Mouse, the New York Public Library, and Parsons School for Design.
