The Makerspace Open House is Saturday November 16th, 10:00AM-3:00PM. Join us to see the machines in action and what you can do here at the library.

Learn how to makedesign and create in our new Makerspace. We have several pieces of equipment available to be used for projects or fun. You may ask "What is a makerspace?" A makerspace is a room that contains tools and components, allowing people to enter with an idea and leave with a complete project. The best part is that makerspaces are communal. The goal is to work together to learn, collaborate, and share. Most importantly, makerspaces allow us to explore, create new things, or improve things that already exist.
