Join us in the Maker Space and use our 3D printers, laser engraver, vinyl cutter and more to create unique Pride-themed trinkets you can take home. For middle and high schoolers.

Kick off your Pride Month celebrations with a teen-friendly tutorial on the basics of some of our coolest equipment in the Maker Space!

We'll show you the basics on using equipment such as our 3D printers, laser engraver and vinyl cutter to see how you can combine multiple tools in the Maker Space to craft unique 2SLGBTQ+themed trinkets you can take home.

Drop-ins are welcome, but registration is recommended to ensure enough time and materials for all. Each activity will take 15 to 30 minutes to complete, so make sure you plan enough time for all three.
