Java turns 30 — and you’re invited to the party! Join us at Arkansas Coding Academy’s campus for a drop-in birthday celebration honoring the programming language that helped shape the modern web. Whether you’re a Java enthusiast, just starting your coding journey, or curious about a career in tech, this is a perfect chance to mingle with the ArCA team, explore what we do, and get a closer look at our Full-Stack program featuring Java and SQL.

Swing by anytime between 8:30–10:30 AM on Friday, May 9 or Friday, May 16 for coffee, sweet treats, and casual conversation. Think of it as a birthday open house — no pressure, just good vibes, good java (yes, both kinds!), and an opportunity to learn more about coding and community. We’d love to see you there!
