If you've been thinking about obtaining a library card, now is a good time.  As luck would have it, September is library card sign up month!  To celebrate getting a card (or replacing an old one. No judgment, swear), why not 3D print a holder for your card or a bookmark to hold your spot in your next library book?*

If you're a teen and interested, you can sign-up to learn how to search for safe 3D printer designs online, adjust and customize the design, and prepare the file so that you custom design can come to life!

Sketchbooks fuel visual creativity, capturing bite-sized snippets of inspirational writing or artistic expression. Join us as we create miniature sketchbooks and explore 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional techniques that can be added to your toolbox including beginner book making, embossing, and yarn painting. We’ll learn about miniatures and the art of miniature making too!

This workshop is geared for ages 8-14 with a limit of 20 participants. Come 10 minutes early to the information desk to get a ticket.
