Come craft with us in the Maker Space. Meet other crafters at this in-person monthly tutorial. Learn what our equipment can do without having to know how to use any of it! Each craft features elements pre-made using one of the machines and is customizable. Each month uses a new piece of equipment.

As a bonus, you can ask our Maker Space experts questions about the space and equipment. Take a look at other projects and make a one-on-one appointment to have us walk you through it.

Perfect for beginners, ages 18 and up.
