Now in its 3rd year, Brearley's BevHacks is bigger and better! A 2 Day hybrid hackathon, with lots of speakers, workshops, food, and PRIZES! 

This hackathon is designed for all Middle and High School Students to learn how to solve real-world problems and make big changes. We are beginner friendly, hosting intro workshops and mentor assistance, for students to leap into the world of coding! 

We will be having Phoebe Wang (Gilsanz Murray Steficek Senior Structural Engineer), Mitch Schussler (Amazon Web Services Sr. SA Manager), and Kiran Mascanerhas (Pinterest Content Design Manager) as speakers!

If you are in New York City and our hackathon is easy to travel to, we welcome you in-person for extra swag, food, and speakers!

For more information, please visit our wesbite: www.brearley.org/coding to register!
